Last Chance For January's Free Xbox One Games With Gold
Get 'em while you can.
February is nearly upon us, which means a new set of free Games with Gold will soon be available for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. That also means that time is running out to grab January's free titles, which are scheduled to go back to their regular prices on February 1.
If you haven't grabbed this month's offerings yet, this is your last chance to download the critically acclaimed platformer Celeste and Ubisoft's beloved shooter Far Cry 2, both of which will remain free for Xbox Live Gold members through January 31. Thanks to backwards compatibility, the latter is also playable on Xbox One.
In addition to those titles, another free game is available right now for Xbox Live Gold subscribers: the off-road racer WRC 6 FIA World Rally Championship. This one will remain free until February 15, so you still have a little more time left to download it if you haven't already. You can see the full list of January's free games below.
On February 1, Microsoft will roll out its next batch of free Games with Gold, which includes Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon--a retro Castlevania-style spin-off of the upcoming Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night--and Assassin's Creed Rogue. Then, partway through the month, Super Bomberman R and the original Xbox Star Wars game, Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, will be free to download.
In other Xbox news, Microsoft has rolled out a new batch of Deals with Gold. From now until February 5, Xbox Live Gold members can get discounts on Destiny 2's Forsaken expansion, Forza Horizon 3, and more games in the Microsoft Store. The entire Assassin's Creed series is also discounted across Xbox One and Xbox 360 as part of this week's Spotlight sale.
