Xbox Live Gold is an online gaming subscription that gives gamers access to a number of benefits. From exclusive discounts to free games to download and keep, many players enjoy using the service. In addition to these perks, players get the chance to check out select games for a limited time as part of Free Play Days.
Recently, Xbox gave details regarding its next batch of Free Play Days games for Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members to play. According to the gaming company, the games available to play for free for a limited time include Biomutant, PGA Tour 2K21, and Hunting Simulator 2. Free Play Days started on Thursday, October 28 at 12:01 am PDT, and gamers can check these titles out until Sunday, October 31 at 11:59 pm PDT.
Besides revealing the start and end times for the event, Xbox detailed how to download these games for free on consoles. According to the company, players must open the Subscriptions tab in the Xbox Store. Once there, players only need to access the Gold member area to find the Free Play Days games available for download through Xbox Live Gold.
This weekend’s selection of free games gives players options as to what to play, as all 3 titles feature very different gameplay. Biomutant is an action-adventure RPG that features martial art-filled gameplay set in a post-apocalyptic world. On the other hand, PGA Tour 2K21 is a realistic golfing simulator that includes professional golfers to challenge while playing on famous courses. Furthermore, Hunting Simulator 2 offers yet another gameplay experience as players hunt down many types of animals.
While these games are only available to play for free for a limited time, Xbox is selling them at discounted prices during the event. Biomutant is $38.99 at 35% off. PGA Tour 2K21 is $19.80 at 67% off for the standard edition and $23.10 at 67% off for the digital deluxe edition. Hunting Simulator 2 is $20.00 at 60% for the Xbox One edition and $25.00 at 50% off for the Xbox Series X/S edition. Furthermore, the company noted that achievements and Gamerscore transfer over if players purchase these games during the event.
In addition to these Free Play Days games available to try over the weekend, Xbox recently revealed the Xbox free Games with Gold for November 2021. Xbox Live Gold members will have the opportunity to claim several games at different parts of the month, such as LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. Unlike Free Play Days, members that download these titles at certain times during the month get to keep the games for as long as they maintain a Xbox Live Gold subscription.
