List of Free Xbox Games With Gold Titles For June 2016 Announced, Download Schedule

Free Xbox games would be available on June 2016 as an anniversary promo by Microsoft Games. The company is giving out four games to mark the occasion.

The promo for free the Xbox games is available to regular and Gold subscribers. All games with gold titles remain free for Xbox customers with an active Live Gold subscription. Once a game is purchased by the Gold member, the subscriber can keep the game forever even upon the end of subscription, Polygon shared.

The following are the free Xbox games for both Xbox One and Xbox 360. It is noted that all 360 games with gold releases are backward compatible on Xbox One. They could be purchased from the Xbox One store.

One of the free Xbox games for June is "Goat Simulator". It is available for download from June 1 to June 30. It is a silly platform game that tasks the player to become a goat. The simulation requires the goat to jump, run, and stick out its tongue on various objects. Before becoming one of the free Xbox games, it used to be sold for $9.99.

"The Crew" is also part of the free Xbox games category. Subscribers can download it from June 16 up to July 15. The game is a huge open-world racing game. Prior to being a free Xbox game, it retailed for $29.99. It is also accessible with a monthly subscription. The maker Ubisoft set high expectations for the game. However sales did not meet their goals.

Subscribers say that the main bargain from the free Xbox games offering is "Super Meat Boy." It will be available for download from June 1 up to June 15 only. The game is reported to be one of the best among the Xbox Live Arcade era. It is described to be a really hard game with a difficult platform. The game requires tight control. It brings out frustration to its players but also highly addictive. This free Xbox game is reviewed as "near perfect," Game Rant reported. The game normally sells for $14.99.

Another one of the free Xbox games for the 360 variant is "XCOM: Enemy Unknown." It can be downloaded from June 16 up to 30 only. It is a turn-based strategy game. The player controls an elite military squad and is tasked to save the Earth from alien invasion. It shares the same unforgiving difficulty with "Super Meat Boy." This free Xbox game also requires tactics, planning and patience. Reviews describe it to be "phenomenally entertaining and challenging." The game is sold at $29.99.

Take advantage of the limited offer on free Xbox games this June by checking out the Xbox One store.
