Xbox One Holiday Gift Guide 2018

Xbox One Console Bundles

Even if you are shopping for someone who already has an Xbox One console, you might want to consider getting them an Xbox One S so they can enjoy Blu-Rays in full HDR. Those who have a 4K TV should definitely consider upgrading to an Xbox One X if they don’t have one already to get the most out of their tech’s capabilities.

Xbox Live Gold Subscription

Although you can enjoy the Xbox One without having it hooked up to the internet, the best way to get the most out of the console is by having an active Xbox Live Gold membership. This premium subscription offers a ton of features for Xbox One users, including game discounts, multiplayer gaming, and free game downloads each month. An Xbox Live Gold membership is essential for anyone looking to enjoy their console to the fullest.

Xbox One Games

Of course, you can’t really go wrong when giving the gift of games. There are loads of new, well-received Xbox One games that released this year alone, including Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Forza Horizon 4, and Sea of Thieves, just to name a few. Xbox One also features backward compatibility, which allows users to play hundreds of Xbox 360 games on their Xbox One. Pad your game collection with some new and exclusive Xbox One titles like the ones below this holiday season.

Xbox One Controllers and Accessories

Whether you want to play a two-player game or simply want to have a backup, it always helps to have more than one controller when you’re a console gamer. An Xbox One Elite Controller would make a great gift for any Xbox One owner, especially if they also like to game on PC using a controller, as it’s compatible with both.

A new gaming headset is also perfect for those who like to chat with other players online or who just want to immerse themselves in the audio of their favorite games. From Turtle Beach to HyperX, there are plenty of options for Xbox One-ready gaming headsets to choose from.

Hopefully this Xbox One Holiday Gift Guide helped you narrow down your gift options for your favorite gamer this holiday season.
