The new lineup for the free games download with the Xbox One Games with Gold program for next month has been revealed.
Microsoft has announced that for the month of May, Xbox One players who are also active members of the Xbox Live Gold subscription can download "Defense Grid 2" for free all throughout the month. Meanwhile, "Costume Quest 2" will also be a free download for the Xbox One from May 16 to June 15.
"Defense Grid 2" is a tower defense game from Hidden Path Entertainment and 505 Games. According to Xbox, the tower defense title is not just a regular title, as it offers both cooperative and competitive game modes for players. In addition, the title has "dynamic content that changes gameplay and millions of ways to beat a level, your victories are your own, and you can always come back for more."
Meanwhile, "Costume Quest 2" is a role-playing game from Double Fine Productions and Majesco.
For the previous-gen console, players on the Xbox 360 can download "Grid 2" on the first half of the month. The game is the sequel to the BAFTA-winning race title, "Race Driver: GRID."
As there are always two games for each console under the Xbox Live program, the second game, "Peggle," a popular puzzle game from Popcap and Electronic Arts, can be downloaded for free from May 16-31.
It should also be noted that Xbox One players may have the chance to download and add all four games to their libraries, as the Xbox 360 games are also available for the Xbox One via the backwards compatibility program. In addition, players can still get a bonus game from last month's Xbox Games with Gold list, as one game from the April lineup, "Sunset Overdrive," is still available for download until May 15. "Saint's Row 4," on the other hand, can also be downloaded until today.
