With June’s passing Microsoft is ready to reveal July’s Games With Gold, now including The Banner Saga 2 on Xbox One and Rainbow Six Vegas 2 on Xbox 360.
It’s a banner month for Microsoft’s Xbox Games With Gold in July, a Banner Saga month that is. Microsoft has gone ahead and revealed July’s line-up of Xbox Games With Gold titles, once again featuring two titles for Xbox One and two titles for Xbox 360 – each supporting Xbox One Backward Compatibility. As ever, reception will be mixed due to different tastes, but July does have a good mix of indie titles and popular classics.
Here are Microsoft’s Xbox Games With Gold for the month of July 2016:
- The Banner Saga 2 - Xbox One (July 1 - 31) Tumblestone - Xbox One (July 16 - August 15) Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - Xbox 360 (July 1 - 15) Tron: Evolution - Xbox 360 (July 16-31)
As per the status quo, both Xbox One games will be available for download by Xbox Live subscribers for a full month while the Xbox 360 games will only last for fifteen days apiece. The Banner Saga 2 and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will open up for download on July 1, with Tumblestone and Tron: Evolution starting mid-July.
That also means that June’s Games With Gold are quickly approaching their expiration date. The Xbox One’s Goat Simulator and the Xbox 360’s XCOM: Enemy Unknown will disappear after June 30, giving Xbox players less than three days to get their downloads started. The Crew on Xbox One has a bit more leeway, lasting until July 15 before it drops off the market.
