Xbox One holiday bundle was unveiled just in time for the upcoming Christmas season. What are the perks of Microsoft's latest package?
Xbox One holiday bundle features a 1TB console, wireless controller with 3.5mm jack and three games — "Gears of War: Ultimate Edition," "Rare Replay" and a full-game download of "Ori and the Blind Forest," according to the report of PC Mag.
The Xbox One holiday bundle will let gamers experience the original "Gears of War" rebuilt from ground up in 1080p. The blog post in Xbox Wire stated that it would include 60fps competitive multiplayer, 19 maps, 6 game modes and 5 campaigns never before released on consoles.
Through Backward Compatibility, the player will reportedly be able to access the entire Xbox 360 "Gears of War" collection — including "Gears of War," "Gears of War 2," "Gears of War 3" and "Gears of War: Judgment" — to play on Xbox One at no additional cost when "Gears of War: Ultimate Edition" is played on Xbox Live by Dec. 31, 2015.
There will also be a collection of 30 iconic games with Rare Replay, from "Battletoads" and "Banjo-Kazooie" to "Perfect Dark" and more, the ComicBook.com learned.
The Xbox One holiday bundle is now available for pre-order at Microsoft Store for $399.
Meanwhile, Microsoft also has something for the kids in the family — introducing the Lego-themed Xbox One holiday bundle. According to Destructoid, this bundle offers a 500GB hard drive and a copy of "The Lego Movie" video game.
It will be released on Oct. 6, but Amazon is now accepting pre-orders at $349.99.
There are also bundle exclusives for "Halo 5: Guardians," "Rise of the Tomb Raider" and "Forza Motorsport 6."
Amazon offers the Xbox One 1TB Console - "Forza 6" Limited Edition Bundle, which will be in-stock on Oct. 7, and Xbox One 1TB Console - "Halo 5: Guardians" Limited Edition Bundle, which will be released on Oct. 20, for $499.99.
