Xbox is closing a huge online store – but it could save you money

XBOX previously announced that it is closing one of its biggest stores, meaning 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 large number of the store’s games.

The Xbox 360 store will close in July 29, 2024, and after this period you will no longer be able to buy 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 promotion, with discounts ranging from 50% to 90%.

However, most games are at least 75% off, which means you can get most games for just a few cents.

There are a number of great games on sale, like two games from the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy.

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

Some of these games can be played on the Xbox Series X|S, but must be purchased from the Xbox 360 store to qualify for the discount.

Here are our picks from the Xbox 360 store closing sale:

• Alone in the dark – 75% discount
• Son of the light – 80% discount
• Far Cry 4 – 80% discount
• Rise of the Tomb Raider – 80% discount
• The Escapists – 85% discount
• Burglar – 85% discount
• tomb Raider – 75% discount
• Watch dogs – 80% discount
