Get an Xbox One X with ‘Fallout 76’ for a huge discount at Walmart

Fallout 76 – Official Trailer

The Xbox One console-exclusive Crackdown 3 is only a few days away, and if you haven’t picked up the 4K-capable Xbox One X yet, Walmart has the perfect deal, which includes another game thrown in for free.

Right now on the Walmart website, the Fallout 76 Xbox One X bundle is just $399, which is $100 off its regular price. The bundle includes a full game download of Fallout 76, as well as free one-month trials of Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass.

You’ll need Xbox Live Gold to play Fallout 76, which is an online multiplayer take on Bethesda’s post-apocalyptic role-playing series. Instead of regularly interacting with nonplayer characters, all the human characters you meet in the game will be other players, and they could choose to murder you instead of teaming up.

However, if you can’t catch this deal, you can always wait for Black Friday Xbox One deals to leverage from Black Friday discounts.

Xbox Game Pass is a great game program as well, giving you unlimited access to a vault of some of the best games on Xbox One. New in February is the excellent Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Crackdown 3 will release through the program on its February 15 launch date as well. In fact, all first-party Xbox One games are available on launch day through the program. New games are added on a regular basis, so if your favorite isn’t on the list yet, it’s bound to get there eventually.

The Xbox One X is the most powerful game console available right now, offering native 4K resolution and 60 frames per second for many titles. It also includes HDR support, making light and dark colors pop more than they would on standard television sets. Despite this horsepower, the console is actually the smallest version of the Xbox One, and still makes use of an internal power supply rather than the huge brick of the original console.

You’ll be able to put the Xbox One X to the test with some of the games coming out over the next few months. Metro Exodus releases on February 15, and Devil May Cry 5, The Division 2, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are all out in March. It can be a bit overwhelming, but they all look too good for us to choose just one.

The best free Xbox Series X games
Spartan on the battlefield

Xbox Series X has built up an impressive roster of games since launching in 2020. From fast-paced first-person shooter (FPS) games to challenging RPGs, Microsoft's latest console has something for everyone. But with most new games clocking in at an eye-watering $70, it's not always possible to play all the best Xbox Series X games. Thankfully, Xbox Series X is also home to a surprisingly deep library of free-to-play games.

While there is some crossover between the best free PlayStation 5 games, that just means there are more players to compete or join up with since almost all of these are cross-platform games.

We all love a good solo adventure, and some of the best Xbox Series X games are single-player only, but nothing quite captures the same feel as playing with (or against) your friends. Thanks to the widespread adoption of cross-platform games, it has never been easier to connect with your friends and hop into a game. The only real difficulty is deciding what game to play. Obviously, there are a ton of free Xbox Series X games you can go for, but if you're willing to spend a little, these are our current multiplayer addictions on Series X.

One of Xbox’s big purchases looks like it’s about to pay off

With its Activision Blizzard acquisition, Microsoft got access to some highly successful franchises, like Diablo and Call of Duty. It also got more casual, mobile titles, like those from the Candy Crush franchise, thanks to Activision Blizzard subsidiary King. The hope was that it could expand into mobile gaming -- and it looks like players might see the fruits of that labor soon.

Microsoft confirmed to The Verge on Friday that testing has begun on a "browser-based mobile store." It looks like it'll soon be available to Xbox Insiders, according to a post on X (formerly Twitter) from Xbox enthusiast account Klorbrille. The post links to a site that has "mobilestore" in the URL and a "Coming Soon" banner.
