2013 Holiday Gift Guide: The 10 Best Xbox One Games

Killer Instinct Pin Ultimate Edition

Price: $60
Rare’s old-school fighter gets resurrected and brings forth traditional combo-based gameplay with insane characters. Killer Instinct showcases a new feature called Instinct Mode that causes the user to gain a boost of energy and enhances their abilities. Arcade Mode is also expected to arrive after all upcoming DLC is released, though you’ll have the option to unlock other cool goodies in the meantime like classic Killer Instinct music and costumes. Pick up the limited edition version of the game exclusive to the Microsoft Store, which comes with a premium case that “doubles as a display for collectible Pinny Arcade pins.”

Call of Duty: Ghosts

Price: $60
Having made its presence felt on current-gen systems, Ghosts delivers stunning graphics performance and dishes better frame rates on the Xbox One than its PS4 counterpart at a speedy 60fps. Take in the same captivating single-player campaign and popular multiplayer modes, plus earn double experience points later in the month when Activision holds an XP weekend exclusive to next-gen gamers. We’re already expecting Xbox Live servers to crash several times once the game goes live.
