, , , , , , , , 0

The titles that will become available to download for free in March for anyone with an active Xbox Live Gold subscription have been revealed. While they haven’t been officially announced through Major Nelson as is normal, a promotional image for the Spanish Xbox site has leaked the information a few days early. The Xbox One games include Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishment and Lords of the Fallen. The Sherlock Holmes title is an adventure game that was released in 2014 across multiple platforms and tasks players with solving a series of crimes while in control of the infamous detective. Meanwhile, Lords of the Fallen is a Dark Souls inspired RPG that focuses on challenging the player as much as possible. Those with an Xbox 360 will also be able to get two additional games in the form of Borderlands and Supreme Commander 2. Both will be backwards compatible on the Xbox One, meaning those with the newer console will effectively be getting four free games throughout March.

Major Nelson has once again revealed the titles that Xbox Live Gold members will be able to download for free in November.  The month will mark the first time that Xbox One users will be able to get their hands on four games for their console thanks to the fact that both Xbox 360 titles will be fully backwards compatible, something that will carry on into the future. Players will have to wait until November 12 though, as the update to add support for older generation games is not available until then. The first game available will be Pneuma: Breath of Life for the Xbox One, which will be offered from November 1 for the entire month. The title is a first-person puzzler that mixes the idea of religion and faith into the story. The second is Knight Squad by Chainawsome Games, which will become fre to all subscribers when it launches on November 16.

Microsoft’s Larry Hyrb, better known by his Xbox Live gamertag Major Nelson, has revealed the titles that will be available to download for free to all Xbox Live Gold members for the month of September.  As is usual for Games With Gold, two titles will be available on the Xbox One and two for the Xbox 360. The Xbox One offerings for September include Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition and The Deer God. The first game is a remastering of hit Lara Croft game that effectively rebooted the series in 2013. Meanwhile, The Deer God is a survival platformer that has a unique visual style that has been created with 3D pixels. The addition of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is surprising considering that the last generation version of the game, Tomb Raider, was only made available through the program for the Xbox 360 back in March. However, it is likely that its inclusion is a way to help increase publicity for the upcoming Rise of the Tomb Raider that is due

June has seen plenty of excitement for gamers. Not only did some of the most anticipated games of the year hit store shelves, in the form of titles such as Batman: Arkham Knight, but gamers also got to find out exactly what new games are in development thanks to E3. July is set to be a little less hectic as there are far fewer major releases on the horizon, although there is still plenty to get excited about. Big Releases By far the biggest and most anticipated release of July is F1 2015. Unlike previous entries in Codemaster’s Formula 1 series, F1 2015 has been delayed until July rather than releasing in March t better allow developers to understand the behavior and technical capabilities of the cars and circuits on offer throughout the season.

Although June will be marked in a lot of gamers diaries it will generally not be for game releases as it is the month that will see hundreds of new titles announced at E3. That hasn’t stopped some publishers from pushing out their big hitters though, with some highly anticipated titles on the way. Big Games June’s biggest launch is without a double Batman: Arkham Knight. The latest instalment in the Arkham series from developer Rocksteady Studios has been eagerly anticipated for several years and will be available on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One from June 23. It is the final game the British studio will be working on in the Batman franchise and sees the player ake on the role of the Dark Knight as they attempt to stop Scarecrow and the mysterious Arkham Knight as they look to terrorize Gotham.

May sees a relative jump in the number and quality of games that are set to release compared with the last few months. We look at some of the biggest launches across the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, as well as other platforms, including the long-awaited Project Cars, Splatoon and The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. Big Releases The most anticipated release of May is without a doubt The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The final entry in  the story of monster hunter Geralt of Rivia, it features a game world that is far bigger than any seen in previous instalments of the series and is comparable in size to Skyrim. The role-playing game from CD Projekt RED carries on the action-orientated gameplay and deep story that has made the series such a hit. On the other hand, another game that many have been looking forward to is Project Cars. The racer has been delayed several times but will finally be available from May 7 worldwide.

Major Nelson has once again revealed the games that will be made available for free to Xbox Live Gold members through the Games With Gold program. This month’s titles range across a variety of genres and may well disappoint some thanks to the fact that both of the Xbox 360 titles on offer are several years old. Especially when you consider the strength of last month’s offerings that included Child of Light on the Xbox One and Gears of War: Judgement, Terraria, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel. Players on the Xbox 360 will be able to download Mafia II until May 16 and will then be given access to F1 2013. Mafia II is a third-person shooter game that incorporates elements of the action-adventure genre. It sees players take on the role of war veteran Vito Scaletta as he mixes with the Mafia. The title received a strong reception from critics and praised for its story and realistic take on Mafia violence. Meanwhile,

Although April is traditionally a fairly sparse month for gamers, with very few high profile releases before the fall and winter months, this year has seen an even more thin group of titles releasing. Many of the games that will hit store shelves during the upcoming weeks will be lower budget releases, often not even for home consoles but rather portable consoles such as the Nintendo 3DS and PS Vita. There are still a few larger games to get excited about though, as well as a collection of high quality titles made available to download for free across various platforms. Big Releases One of the biggest releases for April will be Darks Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin. This version of the role-playing game that released last year for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 is an upgrade on the original title, including all of the released DLC, better visuals, additional content and lore as well as new enemies. It is set to release on April 7 for Xbox

Featuring a battle system similar to those seen in JRPGs, it was developed by Ubisoft Montreal and built upon the same engine the studio used for Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends. The second game is Pool Nation FX, a brand new pool game that has not yet been officially released. Meanwhile, Xbox 360 users will have the opportunity to download four titles at no costs.

Microsoft has revealed the games that will be made available to Xbox Live Gold members to download for free in March. The Games With Gold program for the Xbox One will make Rayman Legends available for the entire month. The platformer is the direct sequel to the highly rated Rayman Origins, which took the Rayman series back to its original roots with 2D sidescrolling action. While it was originally announced as Wii U exclusive, the game eventually released on almost every platform available in 2013 and also made its way to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2014. It received widespread critical acclaim for its distinctive visuals, excellent platforming gameplay and a superb soundtrack. The usual price for Rayman Legends on Xbox Live is $39.99, making it a great deal. On the Xbox 360, the two games for Xbox Live Gold members are Tomb Raider in the first half of the month and BioShock Infinite for the second half.
