Welcome to 2015! Not yet, but Microsoft is getting you ready for the new year at least. Their Games with Gold promotion for XBOX Live Gold subscribers has been pretty awesome this year, but the choices for January are kind of…odd. Of the 3 games, I’ve only heard of The Witcher 2 and it for Xbox 360 (mine gets no love anymore). My assumption is with the Halo Master Chief Collection giving everyone problems and the freebies from that probably costing quite bit, they went a little light on us.
Here’s next month’s Games with Gold!
Xbox One
D4: Dark Dreams Don’t Die
Xbox 360
MX vs. ATV Alive (January 1-15)
Own the competition as you wrestle for position with tightly contested racing in the fifth iteration of the MX vs ATV franchise. Feel the realism of the revolutionary real-world physics engine which has defined the racing genre. Live the sport as Alive captures the spectacle of motocross and the essence of competitive racing while providing the best riders and gear from the latest manufacturers.
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings (January 16-31)
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings features a thoroughly engrossing, mature storyline that defines a new standard for realistic,non-linear game narration. In addition to an epic story, the game features a complex combat system that uniquely combines deep tactical elements with dynamic action.
