General info
  • You cannot currently buy any Xbox 360 content on xbox.com using your account balance, you can only use an active credit card or PayPal. To use your balance, you must make purchases on your console. Unfortunately, even "purchasing" free content through the web site like trials requires an alternative method of payment tied to your account, though adding an empty MasterCard / Visa gift card that is registered for online purchases will work. Xbox One games can be purchased on the web site with your account balance.
  • Some sales are intended for Gold subscribers only, as noted within each section.
    On Xbox One, Gold trials of any length work for sales and Games with Gold. You must be an active Gold subscriber (paid or trial) to play Games with Gold purchases.
  • On Xbox 360, you must have at least a 1 month Gold subscription for sales and Games with Gold. Neither 48 hour trials, 14 day trials nor free weekends qualify.

  • All known sales and information on sales should make their way into the OP. Major Nelson usually updates his blog with new sales information every Tuesday.
  • ALL OFFERS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE! No information within this thread can or should be construed as accurate (or still valid), therefore ...
  • Always verify Xbox Live Marketplace prices before your purchase!
  • Spend wisely, have fun, and enjoy!

Game Pass potential departure dates​

Last updated - 2024-05-28
What is this?
Game prices in the Xbox store have a UTC end date associated with them. These dates generally fall into 5 categories :
  1. The item is currently on sale. These are usually the weekly sale items that end Tuesday mornings at 09:59:59 UTC.
  2. The item will go on sale, usually within 2-3 weeks. These are usually set to switch at 23:59:59 UTC, like the weekly sale on Monday evenings. Some of the major annual sales (Spring, Summer, Black Friday, Holiday) start on Thursday evening UTC, and some times appear to be random.
  3. The item is on Game Pass and is not currently or going to be on sale in the next few weeks. Third party games generally cluster around 09:59:59 UTC on the 1st and 16th of each month. Currently, at least one game is associated with every 1st and 16th through January 2025. The dates then spread out, ending with Human Fall Flat on July 1, 2028.
  4. First party and EA Play titles are farther out, starting in 2049, with many in 2799 and 9998.
  5. No date - some items do not have a price and so don't have a date. If the item is part of a bundle that has a price, the date from the bundle is used.
The list below uses the dates associated with games on Game Pass and EA Play. Time stamps in red are the regular Game Pass departure times and titles in red are confirmed to be leaving, either from Microsoft's regular news postings or by devs / publishers. Items available through Game Pass Core, currently on sale or not available for purchase are also color coded.

The date associated with a Game Pass game is not a guarantee it will leave on that date, but since March 2023 when the price data started getting analyzed, every game that's left Game Pass had been flagged as leaving on that date. It's given a number of people an extra heads up on the generally 2 week notice Microsoft provides.

If you have any questions about the list, please ask in the thread.

How will GPU Ultimate work if you are keeping a Xbox One and adding a Series X? Will both consoles be able to game at the same time? I believe that you can simultaneously game on a One and 360 (diff gen) but not a One and One (same gen.) Assume it will be the same?

You absolutely can use game pass on two XboxOnes right now. Have your "second" console be set as your "home" console, anyone on there can use game pass. Make sure you play on the primary console ()not the "home" one) you're interested in, as long as you're logged in, anyone on that machine can use gamepass.

Everything says the series X functions the same.
 
I'd be down for a Family GPU. After Series X launch, we'll have a X1S in kids room, X1X in living room, and XSX in my office/game room. Everyone in my house games, albeit with a wide-range of tastes.

Microsoft has a family option for Office right? Shouldn't be too difficult to adopt a similar strategy for GPU.
 
I’d like to do the Target offer as well. Annoying that Immortals Fenyx Rising is not included. And I still am having trouble giving Activision $70 for Cold War (yeah, I know it works out to be cheaper but mentally I will still feel wronged :) ).

I would give them $25 for campaign only if they sold it alone.

Activision*. But yeah, I'm tired of CoD. BO1 killed all my interest in the series completely with the annoying way they did the zombie mode. I went back for the Modern Warfare reboot thinking it'd be nice they brought spec ops back, but it sucked and the campaign was super easy and boring. So, I'm not interested at all in it again. I'm waiting for the next Battlefield.

I hadn’t thought about that until now but thanks. It’s confusing because I would think you’d set the home as the main one, not primary. Definitely going to clip and save your explanation for Tuesday.

Hadn't thought of that. Brilliantly simple. Def screenshoting your post for when the Series X arrives.

Anyone know if the format for external drives is the same for the Series X/One?

I was thinking of moving BC games that I want that don’t have Series X enhancements to the drive I have. And wondering if I’ll just be able to plug it into the Series X.

Edit: Found the answer and you can plug and play.

That reminds me, i'm sure a lot of us are gonna use cold storage and just swap back and forth between drives and here was the testing from a while back:

Moving 50GB from an external SSD to an internal SSD took only 2 minutes and 18 seconds. The inverse, going from internal SSD to external SSD, took 4 minutes and 33 seconds. Probably most important, transferring from an external HDD to an internal SSD took 7 minutes and 46 seconds. Finally, moving from internal SSD to external HDD took 10 minutes and 36 seconds.

 
Even in optimized games if it does turn the tables and beat the series x by a couple seconds, not really a big deal Much rather have that more powerful GPU.
Load times are definitely a parameter with diminishing returns. Going from 1 minute to 15 seconds is way more noticeable than going from 15 seconds to 10 seconds.

Maybe if the PS5 eliminates in game loading in the future while the XSX still has short loads then I see the focus by Sony as a win. Otherwise the difference is not a big deal.

 
I'd guess a free month or two as an Ultimate perk.

Hopefully they're codes, I'll probably take advantage of the leaked Fortnite promotion too.
 
This popped up in Poland without being announced. I can't imagine it's Poland exclusive with Cyberpunk (hopefully) a month away, so it will probably be announced at the launch event.

I wonder if it will be the same price. One Christmas years back MS was desperate to gain some ground, so they worked out a deal and added codes for Assassin's Creed Unity to several bundles for free. Literally sent a rep with codes and slipcovers to stores.

Same here, still waiting for any time to be added to my GPU subscription. I'll wait a few more days but will definitely contact Microsoft if it doesn't update soon.
Yeah. I am checking it daily. I have to think all conversion will be done on the Tuesday. Some are just getting it early for whatever reason.

What's this all about? Disney+ included in game pass??
Probably like a skin or ship for an EA Star Wars game.

Sooo...if the timing is the same as the year prior, we should be getting Black Friday Microsoft deals dropping on November 18 or so, right?

Is Battlefront 2 still being supported? Since that's the only SW game in EA Access (and therefore Game Pass) that makes sense, maybe it's Mando and Baby Yoda as characters. I know there's Mandalorian content coming to Squadrons but it'd be very surprising to see that come to EA Access already... Right?
 
Not really, the bottleneck being GPU where we knew Xbox had PS5 beat. All about how fast it can spool data assets for use.
Understood but the message was ps5 has a faster ssd so xbox would lag behind. I'm verrrryyy curious how the load times of third party games compare to Xbox. We all know first party games will run fast but what of assassins creed and watch dogs? Dirt etc.

Also ps5 does have some advantages with bc titles. Sekiro runs better because it used checkerboard 4k vs native ( still runs really well on series X but not close to locked like ps5 has it) and Dark Souls 3 runs at 1080p/60fps where as its locked 30fps on series X. I think there's a few other titles as well but most run better on series X especially considering loading time, auto hdr and 12x filtering.
 
Battlefront 2 ended updates, and Squadrons got a pretty weak Mandalorian update already. Fortnite could see something since they're getting regular Marvel/SW content. Not really much else would make sense if there is game content.
 
I had a hell of a time moving the 6TB of games from my current external drive to a new bigger one. Doing "select all" probably wasn't the best idea because I left it alone and 90 minutes later I see the Xbox had turned it self off. The transfer queue did show up after turning it back on but after it finished I find that the graphs on the Storage menu didn't seem to update. Rebooting once more resulted in the Xbox dash crashing constantly until it did it again with only the old drive plugged in. It seems that the Xbox has issues with a massive queue because plugging in the new drive once more made it go up to 1700 items and the dash started crashing again. The light on the new drive was flashing so I just left it alone all day and it finished with just 600GB left over that's transferring now.

Long story short: only move a select amount of stuff at a time if you are going to do this or just wait to see if it's an easier process on the Series X.

Quick question, has your EA Access sub been converted to GPU yet? I changed my mind about buying another year. I don’t want to use the funds only to find out it won’t add more time.
If you look at my previous post, I stated that it hasn't yet but I'm sure all will be converted on November 10th.

They added some cockpit cosmetics to Squadrons last week but that’s about it. I can’t see them putting it on Access already. I’ve heard Fallen Order is coming to Access soon.
I could see them adding some ship skins or maybe some in game currency that you can only get by playing. That’s be nice because I haven’t fully decked out my alliance ships’ cockpits yet.
 
Fuser, the new Harmonix game coming out next week, looks neat but the review I watched makes it look like the controls would be tough with a console controller.  Looks more suited for PC/Switch.

Man, they're sending that out to die. The week of next gen and most of the biggest releases of the year. There must be 20 moderate to large releases in the next 2 weeks.
 
This popped up in Poland without being announced. I can't imagine it's Poland exclusive with Cyberpunk (hopefully) a month away, so it will probably be announced at the launch event.

I wonder if it will be the same price. One Christmas years back MS was desperate to gain some ground, so they worked out a deal and added codes for Assassin's Creed Unity to several bundles for free. Literally sent a rep with codes and slipcovers to stores.

It was deleted. Context says Cyberpunk being included with some kind of console box, but can't tell what.

We'll see if support patches address locked framerates and such as well. There's a lot that could be done to improve these if the developers decide to.

I didn't even know the game existed until today. Yeah, it's most likely going to be DOA as a full priced game launching right now.

 
Welp, even if I’ll be half asleep, this time tomorrow morning I will have my hands on my Series X! In the home stretch!!!

Unfortunately my wife has off from work tomorrow so that’s a bummer and may limit my ability to play it as much as I want. :(

Mine says shipping tomorrow, meaning Best Buy is waiting til launch day to ship. It sucks, probably won't have it until Thursday, but at least I got one.

Welp, we could be done with Covid.  90% effective vaccine announced this morning.  Could be distributed as soon as next week.  Between this and the election it feels like waking up from a long drawn out nightmare.

I get that two consoles at once is pricey, but you if you couldn't swing an extra controller maybe it wasn't a good time to buy. Too many good local co-op games to watch each other play all day!!!

Whoop, I can still see it somehow.

It is an Assassin's Creed Valhalla Series X bundle. Looks like normal black still, but it does have a custom box.

Would love for Microsoft to get in touch with from software/Namco to unlock the frame rate but who knows. Still upset we never got a patch for MGS5 lol. I'm sure most publishers would still love to remaster everything and just charge more. We'll see.
 
I wish Best Buy and others would have just did a midnight launch. I want my Series X pronto!
Me2, jealous of those who already got theirs. Walmart was amazingly efficient this time.

Edit: Right after I posted this got my email from Best Buy that it shipped. Super stoked even though shipping says it won't be here until Wednesday.
