Xbox is shutting down a huge online storefront – but it could save you money

XBOX previously announced that it is shutting down one of its biggest storefronts, meaning that hundreds of games will no longer be available for purchase.

However, there is a silver lining for fans, as between now and the store’s closure Xbox is heavily discounting a huge number of games from the store.

The Xbox 360 store will shut down on July 29, 2024, and after that time you will no longer be able to purchase games.

You will be able to download any games purchased before this date after the deadline, and this will be the case for the foreseeable future.

More than 60 games have been discounted as part of the Xbox 360 farewell sale, with discounts ranging from 50% to 90% off.

However, the majority of games have at least 75% off, meaning you can pick up most games for just pennies.

There are a number of great games as part of the sale, such as two games from the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy.

Both Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider are available in the sale for 75% and 80% off, respectively.

Some of these games are playable on Xbox Series X|S but need to be purchased via the Xbox 360 store to be eligible for the discount.

Here are our picks from the Xbox 360 store shut down sale:

• Alone In The Dark – 75% off
