Microsoft revealed today that the Games with Gold program is returning next month with another batch of four games for Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. As usual, February brings in two Xbox One games and two Xbox 360 games, with the latter two also being available to Xbox One owners thanks to native backward compatibility.
Here are the free Games with Gold titles announced today and their arrival dates:
TT Isle of Man (Xbox One: February 1 - 29)
For bikers, there are two types of speed races: the Isle of Man TT and the rest. No other race is as gruelling for the motorbikes and demanding for the riders. Take up the challenge of the Snaefell Mountain course: all 37.73 miles faithfully reproduced with the champions and their bikes. Memorise each section of the course, round each bend to perfection, keep your concentration throughout the 6 laps, get the best time and write your name alongside the greatest champions.
Call of Cthulhu (Xbox One: February 16 - March 15)
1924. Private Investigator Pierce is sent to look into the tragic death of the Hawkins family on the isolated Darkwater Island. Soon enough, Pierce is pulled into a terrifying world of conspiracies, cultists, and cosmic horrors. Nothing is as it seems. Sanity is an irregular bedfellow, all too often replaced by whisperings in the dark. Strange creatures, weird science, and sinister cults dominate the Cthulhu Mythos, intent on realizing their mad schemes to bring about the end of everything.
Fable Heroes (Xbox 360 and Xbox One: February 1 - 15)
Fable Heroes is a fresh spin on the beloved Fable franchise in which up to four players play both cooperatively and competitively in this hack-and-slash adventure. Work together as heroes of Albion to defeat familiar foes and new enemies while collecting as many gold coins as possible to unlock upgrades, characters, and items in both this game and Fable: The Journey for Xbox 360.
Star Wars Battlefront (Xbox 360 and Xbox One: February 16 - 29)
Fight as a soldier on the front lines where every weapon and vehicle you see is yours. Take the Empire head on or crush the Rebellion - by yourself or with an army behind you!
As can be seen on the screenshot, the Battlefront game that will be given away is the classic 2004 version and not the 2015 EA game.
With plenty of time left in January, this month"s Games with Gold offers are still available to those who haven"t already claimed the games. Styx: Shards of Darkness and Batman: The Telltale Series are there for Xbox One owners, while Xbox 360 owners can claim LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy.
