May is usually a slower month for players, placed between the annual Spring extravaganza with plenty of big games releasing on a daily basis, and E3 in June, the most important gaming event of every year.
While hardly anyone had expected a Games with Gold line-up even remotely similar to the April one (with
Star Wars Battlefront II, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, The Technomancer, and
Outcast – Second Contact), May's offer may disappoint many players, even those with low expectations.
According to Microsoft, Xbox Live Gold members will have a chance to download
Marooners, The Golf Club 2019 featuring PGA TOUR, Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon, and
Comic Jumper in May.
Here’s when each game will be available via Games with Gold:
-
Marooners: May 1 - 31 (Xbox One)
-
The Golf Club 2019 featuring PGA TOUR: May 16 - June 15 (Xbox One)
-
Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon: May 1 - 15 (Xbox 360/Xbox One)
-
Comic Jumper: May 16 - 31 (Xbox 360/Xbox One)
Games with Gold is a major benefit of Xbox Live Gold. Microsoft's consumer-friendly program provides all Gold members with free, hand-selected games every month, worth up to $700 per year. The service is available to all Xbox Live Gold members, and to download free games monthly, you just need to be an XLG member when you redeem any Games with Gold offers.
