Gamers Rejoice: New Sales Hit Xbox
Just as the festive cheer starts to fade, Xbox has stepped up with some incredible new sales. Following the conclusion of its annual Countdown sale, players are met with two fresh opportunities to snag great deals on their favorite titles.
The Beyond Countdown sale is packed with discounts, particularly on downloadable content and add-ons from some of the biggest releases in recent memory. Plus, the Last Chance sale informs Xbox Game Pass subscribers about exclusive discounts. Both of these promotions kicked off on January 8, and they’ve already generated a buzz among the gaming community.
These sales offer a perfect opportunity for gamers to spend their Christmas cash, with standout deals making waves. One of the most highlighted is the special edition of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, celebrated by PC Gamer as their Game of the Year. It also scored nominations for best narrative and best RPG at The Game Awards 2025. The Royal Edition, which includes the expansion pass, The Lion’s Crest bonus quest, and the Gallant Huntsman’s Kit, typically retails for £80 on the Xbox store.
However, thanks to the Last Chance sale, Game Pass subscribers can grab it for just £39.99, which amounts to a hefty 50% discount. Even if you purchased each add-on separately, it would cost more than £30. This sale really underscores excellent value for Xbox gamers looking to enhance their gaming experience.
The deals don’t stop at the sequel. The original Kingdom Come: Deliverance is also available at an impressive discount, now priced at just £6.99 for Game Pass users. Other significant savings include the Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Digital Deluxe edition, which sees a third-off discount at £54.99, and the Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 bundle, slashed by 60% down to £39.99. The variety in these offers makes for a fantastic opportunity to expand your library.
Meanwhile, the Beyond Countdown sale also features notable DLCs, offering players wallet-friendly options. For instance, the Claws of Awji expansion for Assassin’s Creed Shadows is currently 30% cheaper, priced at £14.69. Another solid pick is the add-on for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, titled The Order of Giants, now available for £13.49, representing a 25% discount.
In summary, the Xbox Beyond Countdown Sale runs until January 21, while the Game Pass Last Chance sale ends on January 14. Here’s a rundown of some selected discounts from the Last Chance sale:
