The Best Gifts for Xbox One Owners This Christmas

2023 Xbox Holiday Gift Guide

Christmas is just around the corner so make sure you get your gifts early to avoid any holiday rush. If you are looking to get a gift for the Xbox gamer in your life, look no further! We have a gift guide just for you.

Starfield

One of the biggest new IPs to launch in recent years, Starfield has finally come out to much fanfare. This Bethesda-made space RPG allows players to be whoever they want to be in an expansive universe. Starfield is the perfect game for players to get lost in over the winter months.

Diablo IV

It has been years since the last Diablo game was released, and Diablo IV picks up where that one left off. If slaying hordes of monsters, undead, and demons is a hobby of your Xbox gamer, look no further. Diablo IV is all about getting deep into character building, watching numbers go up, and clearing multitudes of enemies either solo or with friends.

Forza Motorsport

The Forza Motorsport line has returned after six years, bringing back its signature incredible graphics and variety of tracks. While the Forza Horizon line of games has a bit more mainstream appeal due to its open-world nature, the Motorsport line is true to the series’ roots and features some of the best pure racing in video games.

Hi-Fi Rush

Hi-Fi Rush was a surprise release on the Xbox this year and quickly became a fan-favorite title. While you won’t be able to find physical copies of the game, you are still able to gift Hi-Fi Rush digitally to your favorite Xbox gamer(s). With its vibrant aesthetic and catchy beats, Hi-Fi Rush is a great experience for anyone.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition

While Cyberpunk 2077 was originally released in 2020, 2023 brought the Phantom Liberty expansion and its 2.0 update. This update substantially reworks multiple elements of the title, bridging the gap between expectations and reality when the title was first released. Now, Cyberpunk 2077 has an Ultimate Edition, making it easy for the uninitiated to make that jump into Night City.

Resident Evil 4

When Resident Evil 4 was first released, it was one of the best games of the franchise, year, generation, and some might even say of all time. This monumental title has been remade for the masses in 2023. With the recent resurgence of the Resident Evil franchise, there’s no better time to play Resident Evil 4.

Mortal Kombat 1

Is your Xbox gamer is a fighting game or Mortal Kombat fan? There is no better time to jump into the franchise than with Mortal Kombat 1, which takes place in a soft-rebooted universe. The Mortal Kombat games have always had a strong narrative component, but its smart DLC collaborations and simply fun gameplay make it a must-play fighting game.

Hogwarts Legacy

Hogwarts Legacy is the perfect video game to gift to the Xbox gamer in your life who may have been a Harry Potter fan for years. That being said, the magical world of Hogwarts Legacy is open to all gamers to enjoy. The game has a lot of charm, and getting lost in a castle has never been so enjoyable.

Street Fighter 6

The last game on this list is Street Fighter 6, another fighting game that exudes style and excellent gameplay. Street Fighter has been at it for years and brings a solid campaign with a great roster, fighting mechanics, and graphics. This iteration is another game in which it is a great entry point for newbies to dive in. For the Xbox gamer who likes fighting games, Street Fighter 6 will be their jam.

Xbox Series S – 1 TB (Black)

The Xbox Series S has often been mentioned as a great entry point into the current generation of gaming. Plus, that new black coating on the console makes it even nicer. If your giftee is an Xbox gamer stuck in the previous generation or is an aspiring gamer, look no further than the new Xbox Series S colorway.

Xbox Controller

You can’t play games without a controller, and we have a couple of different recommendations in this category this year. We have the Xbox Adaptive Controller, a controller designed to meet the needs of gamers with limited mobility. This controller allows for a customized experience so that all gamers can play their way. We would also recommend the Xbox Design Lab controllers which allow you to customize a controller specifically for your Xbox gamer.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is often lauded as the best deal in gaming. Giving this to your favorite gamers gives them access to Xbox Live and a slew of games, including a number of those listed above. If you aren’t sure what to gift, Game Pass Ultimate is the safest bet to put a smile on the face of your gamer giftee.

Xbox Storage Expansion Card

With so many great games coming out year after year, Xbox gamers are sure to be running out of storage space consistently. Make that a thing of the past with an Xbox Storage Expansion Card. This device gives gamers more options to download and play games as they see fit.

Xbox Series X Replica Mini Fridge

What should you get an Xbox gamer who has all the games they want? Well how about a mini fridge shaped like their favorite console? Although a very niche product, the Xbox Series X Replica Mini Fridge is both a novelty and a handy appliance to keep cool drinks nearby.
