Xbox Free Play Days August

Xbox Free Play Days August 2022 Games Lineup Announced

Microsoft has announced that three games will be part of Xbox Free Play Days August 2022 starting today. Available for Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, both Just Die Already and Outriders will be available from now until Sunday, August 21 at 11:59 PM PDT. The Elder Scrolls Online rounds out the trio, but given that it’s a huge MMORPG with an enormous amount of content to explore, the game will thankfully have Free Play Days until next week on Monday, August 29 at 6:59 AM PDT.

For more information on the three games on offer, Just Die Already is a 2021 sandbox adventure game where you play as an elderly person who’s been kicked out of a retirement home and rampages about the city with good, ol’-fashioned “old people mayhem.” Outriders is a 2021 online co-op third-person shooter published by Square Enix where up to three players can complete missions together, blasting enemies and using abilities. The Elder Scrolls Online has been running since 2014, with High Isle being the latest expansion released in April this year that explores the castle and jungles of the chivalrous Breton society and adds an in-game CCG called Tales of Tribute.

In other news, Amazon has outed details of PGA Tour 2K23 including its release date and Tiger Woods cover, while gameplay of Telltale’s The Expanse will be featured at Gamescom 2022.
