GreedFall (Xbox One)
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (Xbox One)
Another title that would be a great addition to Xbox Games with Gold isStar Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Since its release in 2019,Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Orderbecame a smashing hit for Respawn Entertainment and publisher Electronic Arts. Although the game may be too new to be included in Xbox Games with Gold, it is worth noting that EA already confirmed thatFallen Orderis just the first game in a new franchise. Having said that, includingFallen Orderin Games with Gold will expose the game and the newStar Warsvideo game franchise to an even bigger player base. This could result in more interest in theStar Warsvideo game franchise, which is definitely a good thing forthe sequel toFallen Orderonce it is released in the future.
Limbo (Xbox 360)
When thinking of puzzle-platform video games that have made a tremendous impact in the gaming community, it is without a doubt that Playdead’sLimbowould be on most people’s list. Since its release in 2010,Limboreceived critical acclaim from critics and players, thanks to its cleverly designed puzzles and simple controls. AlthoughLimbowas already a success when it was first released on the Xbox 360, its popularity skyrocketed when it launched to other platforms. Additionally,Limbobecame the third-highest selling game on Xbox Live Arcade in 2010, generating $7.5 million in revenue. Of course, given that it has been ten years since the game’s launch, now is the perfect time for a new generation of players to discover it via Xbox Live Gold.
Last on the list isRed Dead Redemption, released in 2010 for the PS3 and Xbox 360. For those unfamiliar with the franchise,Red Dead Redemption’sevents took placeafter the story ofRed Dead Redemption 2,which was released in 2o18. Given this, it is likely that there are players who have already beatenRed Dead Redemption 2but still haven’t played the first game, which is why Microsoft should add it to February’s roster of Xbox Games with Gold.
