Here are the deals worth your time in the Xbox Black Friday sale.
The Xbox Black Friday sale is finally here and has really delivered the goods. There are some huge discounts on a wide range of games, with savings up to 55%. If you’ve been waiting for the chance to expand your digital game library without breaking the bank, then now is the time to strike.
There are countless superb deals to be had right now, with most set to last until the end of the month. Having recently got my hands on an Xbox Series S 1TB, I’ve been gradually building up my Xbox collection and will be picking up quite a few games that I’ve had my eyes on in the sale.
If you’re wondering which savings are particularly worth your while, then you’ve come to the right place as I’ve curated this list of six hand-picked favorites to help direct you to some great offers that you otherwise might have missed.
Before we dive into the world of bargains, you can make sure that you’re getting the very biggest discounts by topping up your account wallet with an Xbox gift card at the best prices in your region below.1. Marvel’s Midnight Suns Legendary Edition
If there’s just one game that you pick up in the Black Friday sale, then make it be this one. Marvel’s Midnight Suns Legendary Edition is currently on sale for just $19.99 / £17.99 which is an absolutely staggering $80 / £72 discount on its regular price. I picked up a physical copy of this edition of the game for full price back when it launched in 2022 and absolutely loved it. In fact, I would go so far as to say that it’s easily the most underrated release of the last few years.
Developed by the strategy geniuses over at Firaxis Games, a name you might recognize from XCOM: Enemy Unknown or XCOM 2, this is a superhero themed turn-based strategy game with some really engaging and innovative card mechanics. It follows a team of lesser-known Marvel heroes like Magik and Nico Minoru, plus a few fan-favorites including Captain America and Doctor Strange, as they battle the forces of dark magic. You play as The Hunter, a fully customizable hero that plays a key role in the thrilling story.
In between intense turn-based battles, you get to explore and upgrade your HQ, The Abbey, while spending time with your allies. It’s a fantastic experience for proper Marvel Comics fans, but also those who just enjoy high-quality strategy games in general. Best of all, this version comes with all of the game’s DLC which adds plenty of new encounters and even more playable characters like the one and only Morbius.2. Far Cry 6 Game of the Year Edition
Another stellar discount here, this time a mega saving of $84 / £70 on Far Cry 6 Game of the Year Edition. On sale for just $35.99 / £29.99, this is one that I would recommend to gamers who want absolute bang for their buck.
