Sonic Mania, the 2017 revival of classic 2D Sonic, is part of a new Xbox promotion aimed at film fans. Right now, purchasing certain films through the Xbox store will grant you a free copy of Sonic Mania alongside the film, and many of the films are currently discounted.
The sale will run until June 15, and there’s a lot of sales titles featured. Two big recent game adaptations are part of the sale–Detective Pikachu ($9) and Sonic the Hedgehog ($13), both of which are worth a watch. The Resident Evil collection, Need for Speed, and Rampage are also included, along with the (quietly kind-of-interesting) Assassin’s Creed movie.
If you just want the game for as little as possible, and don’t really care about the movie, you can pick up Warcraft for $5. But honestly, you might as well spend a few more dollars on a movie that’s actually good.
