Microsoft is offering 25 Xbox games worth over $500 as a bundle with new Windows 11 PCs and handhelds sold in the US. The promotion, which will run through December and is limited to buyers in the US, is part of the company's preparations for Xbox's 25th anniversary. Eligibility for the bundle depends on the specific hardware and software setup of the machine, with new Windows PCs or handhelds that ship with Windows Home qualifying, while those with Windows Pro qualify only if they run on Nvidia RTX Spark silicon.
The games included in the bundle span various genres and franchises, including titles from Bethesda, Activision, and id Software, and offer cross-device support for Xbox Play Anywhere, allowing one purchase to cover both the Windows and Xbox console versions of a game.
