Memorial Day weekend is a great opportunity to spend time with friends and family, but it’s also a great time to save money. With big sales on Nintendo Switch, 4K TVs, and GameStop games, this extended holiday weekend has some surprisingly good discounts. The Walmart Memorial Day sale, in particular, has been filled with some of the best price cuts around. From now through Monday, you can find savings on the Xbox One X console, accessories, and games.
The most obvious deals are on console bundles, but there are also discounts on wireless controllers here and there. If you’re just looking for new Xbox One games to play, Walmart is offering popular titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, Halo 5, and Kingdom Hearts 3 for less during its massive online sales event.
The best Xbox One deals are usually on bundles, but there are a few straight-up discounts here and there as well. We’ve gathered the best savings from this Memorial Day sale and featured them below:
If you’re looking for the ultimate open-world game to play this summer, Red Dead Redemption II is one of the best possible choices. We actually liked it enough to give it a rare 10 out of 10 in our review. This game comes with an impeccable level of detail, exciting missions, excellent gunplay, and a brilliant story line. What really makes this game come alive, though, is the vibrant lifelike world you get to freely explore.
Red Dead Redemption 2 has been around for a decent bit of time now, and with this recent sale, it has become surprisingly affordable. Normally priced at $60, a $25 discount drops it down to just $35.
There’s usually a lot of focus on first-person shooters on Microsoft’s flagship console, but if you’re hoping to play something a little bit more light-hearted, Kingdom Hearts III is worth a look. With beautiful Disney worlds and epic boss battles, the final chapter of Kingdom Hearts is packed with fun and familiarity. We liked playing it so much that we gave it a solid 9 out of 10 in our review.
If you’re in the mood to run around and defeat enemies with the help of Goofy, Donald Duck, and a whole host of other Disney characters, this is the game for you. It’s currently being discounted to just $36 right now at Walmart.
When it comes to shooting games, Call of Duty is one of the most popular game franchises out there. Considering we gave Black Ops 4 a solid 8 out of 10 in our review, it definitely won’t disappoint any CoD fans who have played previous iterations. With engaging gunplay, multiplayer games, zombies, and a variety of other features, this one of those games you could play for hours trying to perfect.
This game would normally cost you the full $60, but nice Memorial Day price cut drops it down to just $25 for a limited time.

Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.
Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.
Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.
Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.
