To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Xbox this year, Microsoft has launched a “25 Years of Xbox” digital game bundle. It includes 25 games for $570.
That works out to about $23/game, but it’s more nuanced than that, as some of the games are bundles themselves. For example, one of the games in the bundle, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, includes Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach, and Halo 4. There are Gears of War and Age of Empire bundles, too.
Some of the games in the bundle are for both Xbox and PC, and some are just for Xbox or just for PC. Additionally, many of the games in the pricy bundle are currently on Xbox Game Pass.
Given all of that, you may want to check your library and do some quick math before spending hundreds of dollars on this anniversary bundle.
2026 is the 25th anniversary of Xbox, and Microsoft wanted it to be a significant celebratory event for fans and employees alike, but the year has been terrible for the Xbox brand. After Microsoft named Asha Sharma the new Xbox CEO in February, she gutted Xbox as part of a “reset” that included mass layoffs, studio divestitures, and game cancellations. Sharma said these moves were necessary because Xbox was in such an unhealthy place in terms of its finances.
