Xbox's Games With Gold is less than mediocre right now, especially in relation to PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass. That being said, we're hopeful this month is pretty good. If you're looking to know everything about Games With Gold in February 2022, this is what you should know.
Plus, if you're already a Game Pass subscriber, the free games are just an add on that you don't pay any extra for, so who are we to complain.
Latest - Announcement this week
Now that we're approaching the end of January, we're due to see the announcement soon.
We're anticipating the announcement this Wednesday on January 26th.
February 2022 Xbox Games With Gold Release Date
When it comes to Games With Gold, you need to pay attention to the release date and the announcement date. Generally, the games tend to get announced a week or two before they go free so this is what is worth looking for first.
We tend to see the games announced on the last Wednesday of every month, meaning we should see them announced by Major Nelson on Wednesday, January 26th.
After this, we will then see them arrive on the 1st of the next month. If this is the case, you should be able to play the first batch of games on Tuesday, February 1st.
Free Games Prediction
Unfortunately, predictions are pretty hard to make when it comes to Games With Gold. They are a little random, generally seeing two indie Xbox One titles and two Xbox 360 games.
Given it is leaving Xbox Game Pass in February, we may see A Plague Tale: Innocence arrive. As the sequel is coming to Game Pass, this would be a decent title for Games With Gold.
