Modern Warfare 3 and Starfield Highlight An Obnoxious Trend

Why we like it
With the smaller, more focused Assassin’s Creed Mirage just recently being released, some AC fans may still be clamoring for the open-world style that has now become the franchise’s bread and butter. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will certainly scratch that itch — it’s massive, and it’s a direct predecessor to Mirage, so you’ll probably want to play it anyway. You can pick up a copy of the deluxe edition in the Microsoft Store for just $19.99 right now, a full $60 off the original price ahead of Black Friday.
