Get your wallets ready because Microsoft's Xbox Ultimate Game Sale is expected to begin this week. While we don't yet have specifics, Microsoft frontman Larry 'Major Nelson' Hryb teased the sale, which pops up at various times throughout the year and offers discounts on Xbox games.
F*ck waiting though. Thanks to Xbox Australia prematurely posting the sale, we now have a better idea as to what to expect when the sale launches. The Ultimate Game Sale is expected to run from February 18 through February 24, bringing discounts to Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles. While all Xbox LIVE members can take advantage of the savings, Xbox LIVE Gold members will receive an additional discount.
Assuming Xbox Culture is correct and that the same sales will apply to us in the United States, here are the most noteworthy discounts:
- Halo: Master Chief Collection Bundle – 25% off (60% off with Gold)
- Killer Instinct Complete Edition – 33% off (40% with Gold)
