Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (August 29 - September 1)

Xbox's Free Play Days promotion for August leading into September is now live, with two games playable for free as part of your Xbox Game Pass subscription this weekend.

While we may have a smaller selection than we're used to, these are two games that don't typically appear in the promo - and one of them is just a few months old in the form of seafaring adventure Age of Water for Xbox Series X|S!

Anyway, here's the lineup:

As usual, you'll need Xbox Game Pass Core or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to take part in Microsoft's Free Play Days promotion - as far as we're aware the new Game Pass Standard tier won't include Free Play Days. The above titles are playable for free with GP Core & Ultimate from today until late on Sunday, September 1.

While neither of these titles are on sale right now, the Outbreak Palladium Collection is discounted; which happens to include the original Outbreak game. That collection is a whopping 80% off if you'd like to continue with Outbreak - and perhaps try out some other games in the series.

Xbox Free Play Days - How To Download The Games

  1. Search for the game on the Xbox Store
  2. Hit the "Install, Included with Game Pass" or "Free Trial" button
  3. Play the game!
