In August 2023, Microsoft announced that the Xbox 360 store would be permanently closed this year, specifically in the month of July. There is less and less time left to say goodbye definitively to the store and for this reason, the folks at Redmond have announced great discounts for a good number of quite interesting games.
Through a statement published on the official Xbox website, Microsoft has expressed its intention to put many games on sale before July 29th, the closing date: “To celebrate the legacy of Xbox 360, we are working with our incredible publishing partners to bring you the biggest price reductions possible in our online store or from the Xbox 360 Store on console […] we love that people continue to play their favorite Xbox 360 titles on Xbox 360 or on newer consoles thanks to backward compatibility for compatible games.”
According to Neowin, in some cases the discounts reach 90%. These are some of the games that you can purchase at a much lower price than usual:
- Alone In The Dark
- Child of Light
- Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
- Thief
- Tomb Raider
- Rise of the Tomb Raider
- Watch Dogs
- Worms Revolution
- Murdered Soul Suspect
- Kane and Lynch: Dead Men
- Far Cry 4
- Sniper: Ghost Warrior

The sales started last May 14th, with a total of 61 games and some with prices of less than one euro. Take note of the following dates: during the next June 18th and July 16th we will see two new batches of sales that will surely be worth it.
