To start playing these games, switch on your Xbox and head to the Subscriptions tab in the Xbox Store. Go to the Gold member area, and you should see the Free Play Days collection. From there, download and play the titles you’re interested in. If you earn any achievements while playing, they’ll stay on your account, just in case you ever decide to buy the games.
With Free Play Days running for more than half a week, and being over the weekend when people are most likely to be away from work, it’s a good event for those who don’t like buying full priced games.
