Xbox takes on the Steam Summer Sale with its own massive deals

As the Steam Summer Sale rages on and PlayStation players enjoy Sony's Mid-Year Sale, Microsoft is getting off the sidelines to attract a few frugal gamers of its own.

For those with room left in their budget, Xbox has announced its annual Ultimate Game Sale, taking up to 65% (plus an additional 10% for Xbox Live Gold members) off the price of over 300 games across both console and PC.

The sale begins Friday, June 30, and runs all the way until Monday, July 10 — four days longer than Ultimate Game Sales from years past.

Exact deals haven't been released yet, but some discounts Microsoft has promised include contemporary Xbox One titles like Prey, Injustice 2, and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands and Xbox 360-era classics like Red Dead Redemption, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, and Skate 3.

In addition to console games, Microsoft is also cutting prices on Windows 10 PC titles like Resident Evil 7, Gears of War 4, and Halo Wars 2. Sales were also teased for select PC mice, keyboards, and headsets from manufacturers such as Dell, Alienware, Asus, MSI, Lenovo, Razer, Logitech, and Kingston.

Finally, Microsoft is running a few extra promotions during the Ultimate Game Sale, including free rubberized grips for controllers made in Xbox Design Lab and sweepstakes for in-store gift cards, gaming equipment, and more.

We have contacted Xbox to learn more about the availability of its upcoming Ultimate Game Sale, and will update this story if we learn more. Until then: happy savings!
