Gaming is a great way to pass the time, whether you’re on PC, mobile, PlayStation, Nintendo or Xbox. Each platform has its own unique games and services, and sometimes you can get them with a timely deal. Right now, Best Buy is offering the Xbox Series X at a slight $50 discount — and to sweeten the pot, the retailer is throwing in an extra $50 gift card.
One of the best values you can get with your Xbox Series X is an Xbox Game Pass subscription. The Ultimate tier lets you play some of the biggest Xbox games on release day without the hassle of having to shell out $50 to $70 upfront. Some notable games include Starfield, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, Diablo 4 and Forza Horizon 5. With the Game Pass Core tier, you still have access to games such as Fallout 4, Forza Horizon 4 and Stardew Valley.

Since Best Buy is also offering a $50 gift card with this deal, you can use it towards buying a 3-month Game Pass Ultimate subscription, which is right about $50 before tax.
Right now, a monthly Game Pass Ultimate subscription costs $17, but the price is going to increase to $20 later this year. So be sure to grab a subscription at this price while you still can. The Xbox Series X is also backwards compatible with Xbox One games and select Xbox 360 ones, providing even more value.
