The 8 best Christmas video game levels you can play in 2024
Share:
Gamers looking to celebrate the festive season will want to check out these video games for their special Christmas levels and set pieces. Christmas time is not only an opportunity to catch up on the latest video game releases of the year (something we recommend our Christmas shopping guide for, if you’re in need of ideas), but also to revisit Christmas themed levels and missions from past games.

We’re not just talking snow or ice themed levels either, but experiences that are the gaming equivalent of classic Christmas films, explicitly designed to capture the spirit of the season. If you’re in need of some inspiration for something festive to play this month, we recommend checking out what we believe are the best Christmas themed gaming moments out there, especially for modern games that are easy to play today.

While this is the most recent addition on this list, having only come out earlier this month, we foresee Astro Bot’s Winter Wonder update becoming an annual tradition for some players. It’s essentially a playground of mini-challenges that make use of almost all of the game’s gimmicks, like the time stop power and size shifting mouse rucksack, wrapped up in an immaculate Christmas vibe. It also throws in extra cosmetics and more fun cameos from other PlayStation titles.

It’s a perfect match for a game that’s already as charming as Astro Bot and getting more of the same at no extra cost makes for a delightful early Christmas present. Bayonetta 2 may be a Christmas game in the same way Die Hard is a Christmas movie, but if that lets us mention one of the best action games ever made on this list, we’ll take it.
