Darksiders. Yooka-Laylee. Lost Planet. Three games of the highest quality which have recently been given away via the Xbox Games With Gold scheme for August. Now though September is on the horizon and that means those freebies switch up. What do we have replacing them? Well, if you're hoping for another stellar month of free Xbox games coming your way, you're going to be disappointed.Â
We think August 2021 may well be the best month for Xbox Games With Gold freebies for a good old while.

It just so happens that one of those is the utterly brilliant Yooka-Laylee.Â
August is pretty much here and that signals the start of gaming silly season, with all manner of triple-A and indie titles due to launch over the next few months. But if your wallet can't stretch enough to allow for such gaming opportunities, there is another way to ensure you can take in some new experiences - the Xbox Games With Gold scheme. August 2021 will be no different in terms of Games With Gold, with the 4 free Xbox games coming our way now completely confirmed - and this time around we're seeing some decent quality thrown out through Games With Gold too.
We know the Xbox Games With Gold scheme isn't as tasty as it once was, with most effort and focus now firmly planted at the boots of Xbox Game Pass, but that doesn't mean you should ignore the free offerings that come about each and every month. As we hit the midway point of July 2021, it's that Games With Gold scheme which is happily switching up the free love once more, allowing Xbox gamers the chance to download 2 more Xbox games for free.
Over the course of the last four weeks the Xbox Games With Gold scheme has gifted Xbox players the likes of Injustice: Gods Among Us, The King's Bird and more, all for free to those with valid Xbox Live Gold memberships. But as June begins to draw to a close, and July thinks about raising a head, those freebies are getting set to switch up. And the ones that are going to be stripped of their price tags through the Games With Gold scheme for July will be replacing them. It's not a bad list of titles either.
We are nearly at the mid-point of 2021 - believe it or not. As we look ahead to what will hopefully be six months of freedom from the old COVID restrictions, and some blistering temperatures at least here in the UK, two new titles are coming free of charge to those with Xbox Live Gold.
It's hard to believe that we're approaching the halfway point of the year, but 2021 has pushed on at such pace that we better start believing.

Want to be in on the fully confirmed details of the freebies coming your way through Xbox Games With Gold for June 2021?
