Xbox Games with Gold April 2015: Free games doubled for April

 Facebook

Microsoft is rewarding faithful patrons of its Xbox Live Games with Gold program with generosity. Usually, the tech giant gives out one free game for subscribers with the Xbox One and two titles for Xbox 360 owners. Microsoft is doubling that for the month of April. 

"And if these three amazing titles [for March] aren't enough for you, we have one more big announcement: Since the program's launch at E3 2013, you've collectively downloaded over 100,000,000 Games with Gold games!" Microsoft said in a post on the Xbox website. 

"It's definitely clear to us that Xbox Live Gold members love to [play] games, and Games with Gold fuels that passion. To commemorate this huge milestone, Xbox is giving you more of what you love, with twice the free Games in April! Next month, you can look forward to four free games on Xbox 360, and two free games on Xbox One." 

This month, gamers using the current-gen console have a chance to duel with dark teensies in the 2013 platform game "Rayman Legends." The game is usually priced at $39.99. This fun game will be up for grabs until the end of the month. 

Subscribers who rock the Xbox 360 were endowed with adventures involving tombs, puzzles and exhilarating combat with the 2013 action-adventure video game "Tomb Raider" in the first half of the month. However, players of the last-gen console are now focused on snagging themselves a free "Bioshock Infinite," Irrational Games' first-person shooter video game that is now for the taking. Gamers have until March 31 to fill in the shoes of U.S. Cavalry veteran-turned-hired gun Booker DeWitt, who is tasked to save a girl in a floating island in Colombia. 

Unfortunately, Microsoft has yet to announce the bigger lineup of free games for the month of April. What's sure though is that Xbox One and Xbox 360 owners will enjoy twice as many free games in the month to come.
