Xbox One Kinect Bundle With ‘Assassin’s Creed Unity’ And Your Game Of Choice Now Available For $399

Black Friday has come early for gamers. With still a few weeks away before the annual shopping blitz, retailers have already begun offering attractive discounts for gaming systems and video game bundles to lure in new customers.

The latest new promo worth mentioning comes directly from Microsoft itself, which is offering an Xbox One Kinect bundle with six other games for only $399. It's the same price Microsoft offers for the 500 GB Xbox One with a Kinect sensor, essentially making these six games free for anyone who avails of the new deal.

The offer's online listing includes Kinect Sports Rivals, Dance Central Spotlight and Zoo Tycoon. However, adding the bundle to cart will lead buyers to a checkout page that says they also get a free copy of Assassin's Creed Unity and Project Spark, Microsoft's game creation tool that is already available for free.

But the best thing about the deal is that it lets customers choose a sixth game to include in the bundle. Buyers can get whatever they want, including the newly released and hotly coveted Halo 5: Guardians, which runs at $59.99 if bought separately for the Xbox One.

The free game of your choice will only be available until Nov. 8 though, so gamers who want a new Xbox One with Kinect shouldn't pass up the chance to take on this offer. After Nov. 8, Microsoft may pull out the entire promo as well, or it may not, depending on how customers respond to the deal.

Late last month, Microsoft announced that it was cutting the price of the Xbox One Kinect bundle from $499 to $399. The standalone Kinect camera, which was originally priced at $150, is now at $99. The price cuts come just in time for the holiday shopping season, but Microsoft's Larry Hryb, better known as Major Nelson across the gaming community, says the Kinect and Kinect bundles may bounce back to their original prices.

"Nearly half of Xbox One owners are using Kinect today, and across the Xbox fan base, Kinect sensor owners are regularly among those reporting the highest level of customer satisfaction," he adds. "We are also continuing to invest in Kinect, and are looking forward to launching the Cortana personal assistant on Xbox One in 2016."

Interested buyers can check out the Xbox One Kinect bundle on the Microsoft Store. Alternatively, for those who aren't interested, other retailers also have a bunch of hot offers that can't be missed.
