Xbox One Freebies: Westworld And Avengers: Infinity War Avatar Gear Available Now
The maze is real.
If you're the type who combs through every episode of HBO's Westworld searching for clues to unlock its many mysteries, you'll probably be interested in this. You can download six free Westworld outfits for your Xbox Live avatar. And if you enjoyed Avengers: Infinity Wars after its recent release, you'll probably want to check out this free set of items as well.
Back in Westworld, you can download a technician suit like the ones the workers wear behind the scenes as they tweak the hosts' personalities and fix any damage done to them. You can also download outfits to dress your avatar like Dolores or Teddy, the robotic hosts that have more depth to them than their programming would suggest. Inexplicably, no Maeve or William/Man in Black costumes are available.
But the coolest costume will be instantly recognizable to anyone who's watching the second season. It's a host drone outfit, which means you can make your avatar look like those spooky skeletal wraiths we see in the hidden underground workshop in the season two premier. Dress your avatar in this costume, and you're likely to creep out your friends.
For superhero fans, Marvel is still giving away 12 free Xbox avatar outfits and pieces of gear. You can have your avatar dress as Black Panther or wear the Infinity Gauntlet like it's no big deal. Check those out if you're looking forward to seeing the movie.
We're still expecting an overhaul of the Xbox avatar system to launch sometime soon. A recent leaked video seemed to show new details about what the update will include. Microsoft first unveiled "Avatars 2.0" at E3 2017. The new system is said to offer many more customization options than the current system, which has remained unchanged since Microsoft introduced it on Xbox 360 in 2008.
