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, March 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:
