With the end of July fast approaching, rumors on which games will be free as part of Xbox's Games with Gold program for Xbox LIVE Gold subscribers have begun surfacing. Without spending too much time on words, let's just jump right in.
(Note: The official games are in and both rumors were wrong)
The more believable of the rumors, found on Twitter, calls for Gigantic and Dark Souls 2 on the Xbox One, and Damnation and Stormrise for the Xbox 360 (as backward compatible games). While Gigantic is a free-to-play game, the image suggests that the Gigantic Starter Pack Bundle ($9.99) will be included in August's Games With Golds.
The Gigantic Starter Pack contains the following items:
-
8 Heroes:
- The Margrave
- HK 206
- Beckett
- Lord Knossos
- Tyto the Swift
- Charnok
- Uncle Sven
- Xenobia
- Lord Knossos Gladiator Skin 1
- Win Boost (Prestige)
- 100 Rubies
- 5 Fortune Card Draws
The other rumor, housed on Somos Xbox, suggests a very different lineup featuring Assassin's Creed Chronicles India and Firewatch on Xbox One, and Condemned and Forza Horizon 2 on Xbox 360 (neither listed as backward compatible). This lineup seems less likely, mostly because one game features a PEGI (Europe) rating on the box art and another features an ESRB (USA) rating.
