DECEMBER XBOX ONE GAME RELEASES – WEEK THREE (DEC. 11 – DEC. 17)
Things pick up ever so slightly in week three with two full-game releases and another expansion that racing fans are definitely going to be interested in. Headlining this week’s offerings is Stardew Valley, the incredibly popular farming and life simulator that released earlier this year on PC. You’ll have to make a living from planting and harvesting crops and tending to livestock. It may not sound like a lot of fun, but Stardew Valley makes the results of your hard work feel so rewarding that you’ll end up doing it all over again for several hundred more hours.
On Dec. 12, players will also get to pick up Supergiant Games’ Bastion on Xbox One, and even better, players who owned it on Xbox 360 will get it for free. In Bastion, players embark on a journey through a beautifully hand-painted world as a narrator reacts to every action you take on your quest to uncover the secrets of the Calamity.
Finally, Forza Horizon 3 gets its first expansion in the form of Blizzard Mountain. Blizzard Mountain challenges wannabe racers to become the King of the Hill, as they partake in events that will test just how good their driving skills are in ice, snow, and extreme heights. There are 50 new events to complete and a bunch of new cars to help you out, too.
