Update []: We've updated the article to include Riders Republic and Let's Build A Zoo now that we've got the official word from Xbox Wire.

Original Story: Thursday is back again, so it's time for a new batch of Xbox Free Play Days titles!

There's a total of six games in the lineup today, with the parkour zombie-slaying Dying Light 2 taking the spotlight. Capcom's first two Monster Hunter Stories titles look set to join the FPD offering too. This might be a cheeky wee effort to get new players onto the turn-based spinoff series, whose latest game, Monster Hunter Stories 3, also offers a trial version.

Here's what we know of Xbox's latest Free Play Days lineup so far:

You're going to require some sort of Xbox Game Pass subscription in order to play Dying Light 2, Let's Build a Zoo, and Tropico 6. The rest are free to play for all on Xbox, however keep in mind whether they're a timed trial or not.

Most of the games are free to play until late October 25, whilst Riders Republic gets another day, ending October 26. All of them are also on sale if you fancy adding them to your permanent collection - Dying Light 2 is 80% off, Let's Build a Zoo is 65% off, Monster Hunter Stories is going for 67% off, Monster Hunter Stories 2 is on a 75% reduction, and Tropico 6 is also discounted by 75%. Rider's Republic is marked down too, however, it's the Deluxe Edition that's reduced by 80%.

We'll leave you with some instructions on how to download these below, and let us know what you'll be playing!
