My lad desperately wants Jurassic World Evolution 2 for Christmas and has it firmly at the top of his letter to Santa. We want to get it for him from Santa (there’s genuinely nothing else he’s asked for from the big man!) but, as we have an Xbox series S, there’d be nothing to actually give him. We could do a letter/cards etc saying “check on your Xbox” or something, but it’d be so much better having something to actually open.

I know sod all about this type of thing really, does anyone know if there is any way of getting something physical that you then download to the Xbox rather than just downloading directly?

Go to Currys or something similar and buy a xbox gift card.

You might even be able to get the physical disc from Game.

Brilliant ideas, thanks chaps! The creative side of my brain is turned is at the moment, so appreciate the tips - think the dino toy and voucher thing idea is a winner

If you can do it without him knowing, I'd buy it early and pre-download it onto the console so he can play on Christmas day, not sure how fast your internet is but it could take all day to download.
