It seems that Microsoft isn’t done stuffing Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers full of free games, as the new Free Play Days will give Xbox owners temporary ownership of titles, with a large discount on purchasing them digitally, should you wish to keep them after the promotion ends.
Microsoft has been creating the video game equivalent to Netflix with its Game Pass service for PC and Xbox systems. The service was stacked with new titles in November when EA Play’s library was added to Game Pass. The Xbox Series X/S might not have had any launch exclusives, but Game Pass ensures that new owners already have a massive number of games available to them, including Minecraft and a whole lot of Halo & Gears of War titles.
The latest free games that Microsoft is giving out are only temporary. Microsoft’s Free Play Days allow Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers to download games for free, and gives them ownership for a few days. The player loses ownership once the promotion ends, but the game will be discounted on the Microsoft Store, so they can pay if they want to keep the game and continue playing.
The first three games to be involved in this promotion are Dragon Ball FighterZ, Star Wars: Squadrons, and Yooka-Laylee. These games will be free from January 14-17. You can claim these games through the Free Play Days section in the Gold member area of the Xbox Store on consoles or through the Microsoft Store on PC.
If this promotion seems familiar, it’s because it’s identical to the Game Trials on Nintendo Switch. Microsoft could have picked a better line-up of games. Dragon Ball FighterZ is a great pick, but Star Wars: Squadrons is a short game and can be easily finished within the time frame, while Yooka-Laylee’s far better sequel is already available on Game Pass.
