Xbox has been surprisingly robust with its selection of post-Black Friday offerings, and continues to overshadow the competition when it comes to next-level discounts this close to the holidays. Xbox Series X consoles are officially on sale right now, alongside Xbox controllers, and even the new Call of Duty has been discounted as well.
The deal is simple, but notable, as Xbox Game Pass members can currently buy Call of Duty Modern Warfare III (2023) for $45.59, over $24 off the MSRP of $69.99. Activision is also running a free trial period for the game from Dec. 14-18 if you want to try before you buy.
Xbox Game Pass Deal
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
Cross Gen Bundle – Digital Edition.
This deal is also applicable to gamers in the UK with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 down to £45.59 for those with an Xbox Game Pass membership.
Let’s work out the overall costs if you’re currently buying into the Xbox ecosystem, or planning to buy an Xbox Series X as a gift for Christmas in the US. For starters, an Xbox Series X console will currently cost you $399.99 in the holiday sales (see here), which is $100 off the MSRP of $499.99. Retailers like Target, Amazon, and Walmart all have the console at this new promotional price at the time of writing.
Next up is Xbox Game Pass, a stable for anyone using an Xbox right now. If you’re not currently a member, you can still sign up for Game Pass for just $1; another tremendous deal that will also grant you access to the Modern Warfare 3 discount. (Game Pass Ultimate will renew at $16.99/month).
We’re at $400.99 so far with 14 days of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and an Xbox Series X. Adding on the $45.59 for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, you’re coming out with a brand new game, console, and hundreds of titles on Game Pass for $446.58 in total.
Despite some negative reception and reviews (including from IGN – hi!) Modern Warfare 3 is, unsurprisingly, one of the best sellers of the year so far. But, it is also being rivaled by Hogwarts Legacy for the overall crown.
For new Xbox Game Pass members, it’s worth knowing that Microsoft has announced all the games coming to Xbox Game Pass for December 2023, as well as the first new additions coming to the Game Pass Core library.
“This month, we’re going for a ‘let’s announce everything coming in Game Pass for December’ sort of vibe,” Microsoft said in a post on Xbox Wire earlier this month. “We’ll be back in early January after the holidays for more games coming soon to Game Pass.”
Remnant: From the Ashes (Cloud, Console, and PC) and Remnant 2 (Cloud, PC, Xbox Series X|S) were also a surprise drop on Game Pass. IGN’s Remnant 2 review returned a 9/10. We said: “Where Remnant: From The Ashes was a strong first draft, Remnant 2 is a revolutionary sequel and a sterling manifesto for the looter-shooter soulslike.”
