Xbox Live Games With Gold Update: February 2017 FREE Games Include Project CARS, Monkey Island 2 [Video]
Microsoft makes two games free for Xbox Live Gold members to download for a limited time on both the Xbox One and Xbox 360 every month. Now, the company is having another eye-catching line-up for its Xbox Live Games with Gold promotion i.e. LucasArts classics Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Monkey Island 2. The co-op indie game from Asteroid Base will be accessible free to Xbox Live Gold subscribers all month long.
Since November 2015 the two free Xbox 360 games have also been backwards compatible with the Xbox One that means the owners of Microsoft's current gen console can effectively get four free games a month.
Even if you don't have an Xbox One yet, you also can nab the games for free as long as you have an Xbox account. Just sign into the Xbox website, head to the title's listing page and you can redeem the offer instantly. The game will then come into view in the console's 'Ready to install' list if you buy an Xbox One in the future.
Below is the list of the free Xbox Live Games With Gold for this month, as noted by Mirror.
Xbox One
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime: 1 February - 28 February
Project Cars Digital Edition: 16 February - 15 March
Xbox 360
Secret of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge - Special Edition: 1 February - 15 February
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed: 16 February - 28 February. You should also keep in mind at the end of February that you'll only have 13 days to claim Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, rather than the usual 15, due to the shorter month.
Although, you've also still got time to claim some of this month's Games with Gold. Word of Van Helsing: Deathtrap (Xbox One) and Rayman Origins (Xbox 360) are available until the end of the month and you have until February 15 to claim Killer Instinct Season2 Ultra Edition (Xbox One).
As always, the Games With Gold titles on Xbox 360 are playable on Xbox One via the console's backward compatibility program, reports Polygon.
