Earlier tonight in discord the topic of discussion landed briefly on Parasite Eve, which made me want to replay Parasite Eve as it's been like 15 years, which made me think, "there aren't many Christmas games, huh?" Halloween is an easy holiday to prepare for. You load up on horror games and you're good to go. Christmas? Not so much.

After a bit of thinking, I've got this very short list:
Parasite Eve
Batman Origins
That Costume Quest DLC

What else is there? I'm gonna try to play through at least one game in December that's Christmas-y, and it's probably going to be Parasite Eve, but I'd like to have some options.

Donkey Kong Country 3 has that cheat code that makes the game Christmas-themed, with Christmas-type music playing and Christmas presents replacing the bananas.

Mizzurna Falls is an ambitious survival horror/adventure game that was only released in Japan. It finally got a full English patch last year. It begins on Christmas and has a Twin Peaks/Deadly Premonition vibe.

Blue Stinger for the Dreamcast is another survival horror game that's set on Christmas. It's a bit rough around the edges however.

One of the first levels of Gex 3 is a Christmas themed one.

There's also the Duke Nukem Nuclear Winter expansion.

Batman Returns is another Batman game set on Christmas.

Hitman: Blood Money has a Christmas level.

On this note, Alone in the Dark 2. I think there's even a Halloween mini-episode that leads into 2 being Christmas themed.

Oh that's a good catch! The mini-episode is called Jack in the Dark and is a Halloween/Christmas hybrid.

Oh that's right! And in Hitman 2016, there's a bonus episode in Paris where you can dress up as Santa and kill the wet/sticky bandits.

I kind of like it in The Divison. I didn't play a lot of the game, but flaming Christmas mall was a pretty memorable level.

(but yes Sumo Santa is bad)
