Microsoft has once again applied discounts to a number of games in the Xbox Store for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC. The TA News team has been scouring around to find their top picks.
Well, when we said “TA News Team,” we actually meant Tom and Luke. So Heidi and Sean had to sit down this week. Because each of our pairs he was able to rustle two picks. Technically Luke picked four, but who counts? — from a wide range of discounted games on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.
It’s just the two of us this week, so I’m not asking you to join me on this journey, but I’m actually asking you. That’s a good thing, though. More bullets than a John Wick movie, fantastical mysteries, twisty rides, and lots of features that can only be described as ‘normal’ for a video game. Take a look below and check out the discounts we think are worth your money and time.

Also included in this bundle is the punitive retro-style action game Slain: Back from Hell, a throwback to the era of 8-bit and 16-bit Castlevania games and more.

This is basically Crazy Taxi meets Snake, with each drop off making the bus longer.
