Ryse: Son of Rome

Originally priced at $19.99, "Ryse: Son of Rome" can be accessed for free beginning April 1 until April 30. The hack-and-slash video game follows the story of a young Roman soldier named Marius Titus. After witnessing the murder of his family at the hands of barbarian bandits, he sets out on a mission to exact revenge on his enemies.

The Walking Dead: Season 2

Telltale's "The Walking Dead: Season 2" usually retails for $24.99, but it can be played for free from April 16 to May 15. Based on Robert Kirkman's comic book series of the same title, the episodic adventure game stars Clementine, a young girl whose parents died due to the undead apocalypse.

Darksiders

"Darksiders" is free for all subscribers from April 1 to April 15. Developed by Vigil Games, the game is inspired by the apocalypse. Players take on the role of War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. This action role-playing game is estimated to be priced at $19.99.
