If you are wanting to renew your Xbox Live Gold subscription, it might be a good idea to buy it at Amazon as the online retailer is having a sale on the item.

If you visit Amazon right now, you will see that a code for 12 months worth of Xbox Live Gold is selling for only $39.99. You save $20 as a subscription normally sets you back $59.99.

Amazon didn’t specify how long this sale will last, so take advantage of this while you can. There are no discounts for the other subscriptions as the 3 month and 6 month deals are the same price.

Now is a perfect time to get an Xbox Live Gold subscription if you are a fan of online multiplayer games. Overwatch is out now and is pretty much the most popular video game out there at the moment. It’s worth getting a subscription to simply play this game as it’s fun.

A 12 month subscription will last you well into the busy Fall 2016 season. You can use it to also play the likes of Gears of War 4, Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.
