Microsoft makes over 50 games free to play without Xbox Live Gold

Xbox players will no longer require Xbox Live Gold membership to play over 50 online multiplayer games.

Microsoft Xbox

Microsoft is making over 50 games free to play on Xbox without an Xbox Live Gold membership. Now all Xbox players will be able to play these online multiplayer games for free. The party chat feature for these free-to-play games will also not require Xbox Live Gold membership. Microsoft will also make the ‘Looking for Group' option open to all users this month via a system update.

The Xbox website has been updated with the list of games that are now free to play. It will also display whether the game is free to play online or requires a subscription in the Microsoft Store. There are some features that still require a subscription and these include premium or paid game modes and experiences. Demos of games that require a pre-order or purchase, early access edition, trial license versions also require an Xbox Live Gold subscription. There's an FAQ page for Xbox players to get more details about this new update.
