Commence extra carrot-dangling
Microsoft has started an extra aggressive push on the Xbox One S, just as we near Sony’s September 7 PlayStation announcement. Now through September 6, if you buy an Xbox One S (or the original Xbox One) from Microsoft, you will receive a free $50 Microsoft Store gift code, a free Ubisoft game, and even $10 off towards an Xbox One wireless controller purchase.
The free games aren’t anything to write home about as they are typical Ubisoft picks that we’ve seen ad infinitum: Watch Dogs, The Crew, Just Dance 2016, and Just Dance: Disney Party 2. The $50 gift card freebie is, of course, the best aspect of this deal and essentially gets you another free game you can buy separately (maybe Dishonored 2 or Battlefield 1?).

The same deal will qualify on the older Xbox Ones too, which are receiving additional discounts on the console as incentives — though in our opinion at this point you may as well pony up the extra $50 for the newer Xbox One S. The bonus offers do not apply to pre-order Xbox One S consoles like the upcoming FIFA 17 bundle.
As mentioned, this deal is non-coincidentally ending on September 6, just before midnight at 11:59pm PST. We don’t think this will sway anyone who has already made up their mind to wait, but for those on the fence, it may just trickle budget-conscious gamers one step closer to the Xbox One S camp.

Disclosure-bot: Just in case the editor neglected to mention it, we have zero control when deals start and end. Deals can sometimes be gone within minutes (please don’t shoot the messenger). Trying deal links even hours after this article’s time stamp may lead to self-punching, so maybe bookmark our video game deals if you’re on the hunt. Also, it goes without saying, but some shopping links do directly support the author. If you’ve spotted any inaccuracy please let us know asap.
