Xbox Store Kicks Off Massive Holiday Sale Featuring 800+ Games

If you're looking for a new game or two to play on Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One, there's a huge new holiday sale at the Xbox Store. The Countdown Sale is one of the digital storefront's largest sales of the year, as it features more than 800 games and DLC. All of the deals are live until January 3, so you have a little over two weeks to shop.

Some of the best deals can be found on 2020 games. A trio of recently released Ubisoft games are discounted to great prices. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is down to $45--which is its best price yet--Immortals Fenyx Rising is $40.19, and Watch Dogs: Legion is $30. You can also get an Assassin's Creed bundle with Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins for $64. That's enough content to keep you busy for months, especially if you choose to get any of the DLC released thus far.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Cross-Gen Bundle is on sale for $56. The Cross-Gen Bundle is playable on Xbox Series X|S with performance upgrades as well as on Xbox One. If you only have Xbox One and don't plan on upgrading soon, the Xbox One version of Black Ops Cold War is $45. It's about a $15 savings on either version.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon, one of our favorite games of 2020, is discounted to $45 and includes a free Series X|S upgrade. Other 2020 games that are on sale include Resident Evil 3 for $19.79, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 for $30, Doom Eternal for $19.79, and Star Wars Squadrons for $24.

We've rounded up some of the highlights from the Countdown Sale below, but you can check out the full offerings at the Xbox Store.
