The best Xbox One games available to buy right now
Everything from fantasy to action to challenges
If you're an Xbox One fan, chances are you're always on the lookout for new games. Whether that be action, fantasy, simulation or spooky, one thing's for sure, there are some *iconic* games out there just waiting to be bought. Plus, with Christmas fast approaching, games are a quick and easy gift to stick in the Christmas stockings of your nearest and dearest (providing they own an Xbox One, of course).
So, we've compiled a list of the best Xbox One games to buy right now - whether for yourself or for someone else. Get ready to play virtual Monopoly with your friends, resurrect your love for The Sims, or battle it out in a game of FIFA.
And if you've got other games consoles in your life, take a look at our pick of the best PlayStation 5 games, our favourite PS5 controller skins, plus the best Nintendo Switch games and Nintendo Switch cases. You're welcome.
Instead of taking your game of Monopoly nice and slow like normal, this version is a race against Mr. Monopoly himself. Competing for fame and fortune, you'll be trading properties in a way you've never done before. Sounds exciting. And slightly stressful. But hasn't that always been part of its charm?
Wednesday Addams is our spirit animal - she's cool and kooky and will not be messed with. This Xbox One game sees you joining Wednesday, Pugsley, Gomez, and Morticia as they try and save their mansion. Expect puzzles, minigames, laughs and lots of spooks!
The Sims was the ultimate game growing up, wasn’t it? Whether you played by the rules and worked hard to make your Sim rich and achieve its goals, or you went straight down the Motherlode route, the Xbox One version does not judge. You can WooHoo until your heart’s content.
Another family favourite gone virtual, get your quiz head-on with Xbox One's version of Trivial Pursuit. While the premise of the game doesn't actually change, you can enjoy it in a TV quiz show setting rather than on a board.
Be the first to review this product FIFA 23 for Xbox One
FIFA is an Xbox classic and a surefire crowd pleaser. Plus, for the first time, you can now play as women's club teams. The Barclays FA Women’s Super League and Division 1 Arkema are available on FIFA 23, which is a big yes from us.
Be the first to review this product Call Of Duty: Vanguard for Xbox One
Another Xbox classic for a reason, Call of Duty is a cult fave. Call Of Duty: Vanguard follows a set of soldiers from different countries during World War II, promising a "deeply engaging narrative" - though it's worth bearing in mind that this one is rated as an 18 if you're buying any presents.
Our love for Lara Croft will never die, and Rise of the Tomb Raider is an *essential* for any Xbox One collection if you don't have it already. The edition promises to be "the most visually stunning Tomb Raider game ever made" thanks to enhanced visual fidelity. Say no more.
"Subnautica is an underwater adventure game set on an alien ocean planet. A massive, open world full of wonder and peril awaits you!" That's all we need to know. We're sold.
SEGA Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 The Official Video Game (Xbox One)
Be the ultimate athlete at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. Whether you fancy trying your hand at athletics, or you're feeling a little more adventurous and want to get your cycling gold medal, you can achieve all of your sporting dreams while playing this game.
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment LEGO Harry Potter Collection (Xbox One)
You can’t deny you weren’t annoyed at your parents as a kid because they didn’t send you to Hogwarts. Granted, going to a school for witchcraft and wizardry feels a bit far-fetched now, but Xbox has got you and is allowing you to virtually live your childhood dreams now. Oh, and it's a lego version, too. Might just be the most epic thing ever?
"In Sonic Forces, you must help Sonic build an army to reclaim the world as you fight against chaos and destruction." Cool, sounds good to us.
