Get an Xbox One X with ‘Fallout 76’ for a huge discount at Walmart

Fallout 76 – Official Trailer

The Xbox One console-exclusive Crackdown 3 is only a few days away, and if you haven’t picked up the 4K-capable Xbox One X yet, Walmart has the perfect deal, which includes another game thrown in for free.

Right now on the Walmart website, the Fallout 76 Xbox One X bundle is just $399, which is $100 off its regular price. The bundle includes a full game download of Fallout 76, as well as free one-month trials of Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass.

You’ll need Xbox Live Gold to play Fallout 76, which is an online multiplayer take on Bethesda’s post-apocalyptic role-playing series. Instead of regularly interacting with nonplayer characters, all the human characters you meet in the game will be other players, and they could choose to murder you instead of teaming up.

However, if you can’t catch this deal, you can always wait for Black Friday Xbox One deals to leverage from Black Friday discounts.

Xbox Game Pass is a great game program as well, giving you unlimited access to a vault of some of the best games on Xbox One. New in February is the excellent Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Crackdown 3 will release through the program on its February 15 launch date as well. In fact, all first-party Xbox One games are available on launch day through the program. New games are added on a regular basis, so if your favorite isn’t on the list yet, it’s bound to get there eventually.

The Xbox One X is the most powerful game console available right now, offering native 4K resolution and 60 frames per second for many titles. It also includes HDR support, making light and dark colors pop more than they would on standard television sets. Despite this horsepower, the console is actually the smallest version of the Xbox One, and still makes use of an internal power supply rather than the huge brick of the original console.

You’ll be able to put the Xbox One X to the test with some of the games coming out over the next few months. Metro Exodus releases on February 15, and Devil May Cry 5, The Division 2, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are all out in March. It can be a bit overwhelming, but they all look too good for us to choose just one.

The best Xbox Series X exclusives
Master Chief meeting the Weapon in Halo Infinite.

Microsoft's latest console, the Xbox Series X, is a powerhouse, oftentimes matching or outperforming the PlayStation 5 in multiplatform releases. But how are the exclusives? The Xbox Series X had a thin lineup at launch, but over the years has amassed a more than impressive catalogue of titles.

We will only include Xbox One games if they've been optimized for Series X and S (like Gears 5). Also, we're ignoring PCs entirely. If you factor in PC releases, Microsoft hasn't had a console-exclusive game in years. While many exciting games are still to come, such as Fable and Hellblade 2, there are more than enough to keep you satisfied until then.

The best RPGs for Xbox Series X
best-single-player-nintendo-switch-games

If there's one genre the Xbox series of consoles has struggled to really break into in the past, it's RPGs. Yes, each system had a standout title or two, like the original Xbox having Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and the 360 having Lost Odyssey, but this particular family of consoles was always seen as secondary to RPG fans compared to Sony, or even Nintendo, machines. With the release of the Xbox Series X, Microsoft has made a strong effort to fill that gap in their library and has already done a great job of publishing, or at least supporting via Game Pass, some of the best RPGs in recent memory.

What counts as an RPG today covers a wide range of games. They can be turn-based, real-time, action-focused, narrative-focused, first-person, and more. So many games incorporate RPG elements now that it can be a little tough to find one that doesn't anymore. However, for this list, we're picking only games that are RPGs at their core, or at least have it as the main component rather than a game that just throws in progression bars and nothing else. Still, that leaves a lot of ground to cover. If you're feeling the itch for a new RPG to play on your Xbox Series X, we've picked out the best from a range of titles that should fill the exact experience you're looking for.
