This Week's Xbox Deals Include A First-Ever Discount For Antstream Arcade

Every time we bring up Antstream Arcade, it feels like the Pure Xbox community responds with interest, so we wanted to make you aware that the cloud-based retro gaming collection has just received a first-ever sale on Xbox!

The collection is currently 50% off on the Xbox Store, bringing it down to £16.50 / $20.00 for a year's subscription. Sadly there's no discount for the Lifetime Pass though, which remains very expensive as things stand.

We're not going to waffle too much about it - but here's a bit more coverage on Antstream Arcade from us. Keep in mind that some games have left and been added over the past year, so the lineup looks slightly different compared to launch.

Beyond Antstream Arcade, there are plenty of great deals to highlight on Xbox this week, taken from a new Franchise Hits Sale, a Game Pass Wish List Sale and the usual array of weekly Game Pass discounts.

To find these, you'll need to go to the "Deals" section of the Microsoft Store on your Xbox console.

Here are some of the highlights that we've picked out from this week's Xbox sales:

The majority of these offers are expected to be available until at least October 8th, 2024.
