A note from the editor: Jelly Deals is a deals site launched by our parent company, Gamer Network, with a mission to find the best bargains out there. Look out for the Jelly Deals roundup of reduced-price games and kit every Saturday on Eurogamer.

Another week down, another week of potential Christmas shopping disappears. The deals themselves don't seem to be showing much sign of slowing down, however. With that in mind, let's take another look at the very best deals of the past week.

As usual, we've got deals that'll work in the UK, deals that'll work in the US and some deals that will work in both the UK and US, as well as presumably many other places. Let's get started.

UK & US Deals

Humble's got quite an offer going on right now. Not only is the site still offering what is arguably its best Humble Monthly yet (Dawn of War 3, Quantum Break and The Long Dark in the Monthly for £10 / $12) but if you head there today, you'll be able to get yourself a free copy of Company of Heroes 2. To tie those deals together, by getting your free copy of Company of Heroes 2, you'll also get 10% off your first Humble Monthly. Nice.

In Okami HD, you can be a wolf. Not only that, but you're a wolf that also happens to be a goddess. Specifically, the goddess of the universe, which is nice. You can pick up a PC copy of the newly released Okami HD for £12.79 over at Green Man Gaming.

Another of this week's new releases, the Gold Edition of one of my favourites of the year, Resident Evil 7, is up for grabs in digital PC form for £33.99 for a limited time. That version includes the base game and every last bit of DLC possible.

UK Deals

If you're after an Xbox One X at the moment, you're going to want to pull the trigger on this bundle from ShopTo. The console's regular price of £449.99 will currently get you an Xbox One X with Forza 7, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Doom, Dishonored 2 and Fallout 4. That's arguably the best deal on the console so far.

There's an assortment of games on offer in the UK this week, just in time for Christmas delivery, too. Starting things off is this discounted copy of Assassin's Creed Oranges, which brings the price of a console copy temporarily down to £35.

Alternatively, you can pick up a boxed copy of Star Wars Battlefront 2 for £33 on either Xbox One or PS4.

Failing that, you can opt for Destiny 2, which is currently on offer at GAME for a limited time for its lowest price yet - £19.99.

Crash's trilogy of games gets a look in as well, with a discount bringing the price of the N. Sane Trilogy on PS4 down to £20.

Speaking of remasters, the shiny new edition of L.A. Noire is on offer on all three formats this week. It's down to £22 on PS4 and Xbox One while the Switch version is a little pricier, coming in at £26.

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are both cut down in price over at SimplyGames this week, while stock lasts. Either copy will cost you £27 for the time being.

If you're in the market for an Xbox One S, your best bet is to head to ShopTo's eBay outlet and grab this Xbox One S bundle with Assassin's Creed Oranges for just shy of £200.
