Christmas is right around the corner with little over a month left, and the latest generation of Xbox consoles have had ample time for stock to replenish since their release. With many exciting Xbox games released this year as well, there is a lot for players to look forward to this holiday in console bundle deals.
Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S have aided Microsoft's console brand and generated a lot of excitement for its games. Halo Infinite's shadow-dropped multiplayer, for example, has been a substantial success, and Forza Horizon 5's launch earlier this month was another large milestone. Today, Microsoft and Xbox have announced a new console package bundle that comes with freebies for two massively popular free-to-play titles.
Microsoft's newest console bundle includes the Xbox Series S as well as several in-game add-on content for both Fortnite and Rocket League. Aside from the Xbox Series S and a Robot White wireless controller alone, this bundle is sweetened with themed content titled the Midnight Drive Pack. For Fortnite, the Midnight Drive Pack includes the Dark Skully Outfit, the Dark Skully satchel bag bling, and the Dark splitter pickaxe. For Rocket League, this pack includes the Purple Masamune Car, the Purple Virtual Wave boost, and Purple Zefram Wheels.
Further, the Midnight Drive Pack includes 1,000 V-Bucks and 1,000 Rocket League Credits respective to Fortnite and Rocket League, which can be spent toward other items in either game, such as Fortnite's Battle Pass or Rocket League's Item Shop. These items and resources are therefore a great draw for Fortnite and Rocket League players as well who may not have yet had an opportunity to get their hands on an Xbox Series S.
Fortnite and Rocket League's extravagant franchise crossovers are well known, with each title taking other IPs and implementing them as cosmetics or mechanics. But with this Xbox Series S bundle players may enjoy original content that the otherwise free-to-play Fortnite and Rocket League have introduced. This bundle will be "rolling out worldwide in December while supplies last" so there will hopefully be many opportunities for players to secure it before the holiday arrives.
Fortnite is free-to-play on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Rocket League is free-to-play on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
