Microsoft is getting ready to refresh games with the release of Gold Free Game for October.
Like the PS Plus, Xbox Gold subscribers receive the option of free games each month.
The first batch of Gold Freebees starts on the first day of the month, followed by the second wave midway the following month.
If you subscribe to Xbox Gold, you can download Maid of Scare on Xbox One and Costume Quest on Xbox 360 from the morning of October 16th.
In fact, due to Microsoft’s backwards compatibility feature, Costume Quest will also play on the Xbox One.
This means that this is your last chance to download the current batch of free games, including The Book of Unwritten Stories 2, and Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy.
Maid of Scare and Costume Quest Gold title in existing games Slave Camp: Butchers Cut, free until the end of this month.
To make sure you don’t miss out on free games, visit Games with the Gold Hub or official on your console Microsoft Website.
