It’s been a while since the last major sale on Xbox One, but fortunately, Microsoft has kicked off a new one featuring steep markdowns on some of the platform’s best games. The Xbox One “Ultimate Game Sale” is live through August 24 with up to 65% off a very nice selection of games, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and more. The Ultimate Game Sale also features discounts on Xbox accessories like the new PowerA MOGA Mobile Gaming Clip for xCloud, the Hyperkin S Racing Wheel, and several others.
We’ve rounded up the highlights of the sale below. Keep in mind some of the following games are available through Game Pass, and most of them are even cheaper if you have Xbox Live Gold (which is included with Game Pass Ultimate). We’ve reflected both prices below–the cheaper price indicates the amount Gold members will pay. Games available on Game Pass only have one discounted price.
