Microsoft has been offering discount after discount when it comes to the company"s Xbox One console and games. Most recently, the Xbox One with Kinect bundle received the same $50 price drop that the standalone unit had received earlier this year. So it may come as no surprise that Microsoft has once again launched a temporary games sale on select Xbox games to go with those console price drops.
Starting today, Xbox One owners that sign into Xbox Live will notice a tile on the home screen that reads "Ultimate Game Sale". Selecting the tile will reveal the entire selection of games on sale to both Xbox Live "Silver" and "Gold" members, meaning you don"t have to have an active Xbox Live Gold subscription to get in on the savings. However, Gold members will see a bigger discount on almost every available game.
