Games with Gold is the monthly campaign that gives Xbox Live members access to a host of free games.

And compared to Sony's PS Plus set of free games, Microsoft absolutely killed it with their first set of games for the decade.

Earlier in the month we looked at some of the games we were super excited to play this February.

Check out what's in store.

What we are getting in February

There are two new games available for players right now in Games with Gold.

DARING: Take on the dangerous Isle of Man TT course

One of these games is challenging TT Isle of Man, a game that puts you in the hotseat of 200 mph bikes and asks you to fly through rural towns as fast as possible!

Tackle tight bends, winding roads, and more than a few jumps as you take on the legendary and deadly 37-mile Snaefell course. Can you survive it without sending your rider flying into the next field?

The next game we can now play is Fable Heroes.

FABLE: Continue the iconic series in this game

Fable Heroes is a hack and slash adventure game that continues the iconic franchise from the late 2010's that enchanted so many gamers.

The player plays as one of 12 characters from across the four Fable games and are presented in a hero doll form.

Journey through Albion and fight against familiar enemies and all-new foes to collect coins that are used to unlock new items and characters in Fable Heroes. There are also boss fights in the game as well as smaller enemies which are fought in groups.

This game was only available until 15 February so hopefully you got it!

January's Batman: Telltale Series (Episodes 1-5) was also still available until 15 February.

The game's narrative offers a fresh interpretation of the universe set in current times, and not tied to any existing iteration of Batman in games, film, or comics.

I'M BATMAN: Or at least I can be now thanks to Games With Gold

The game is set a few years after Wayne decides to become Batman, giving them flexibility in their writing and gameplay to give the player some control over how they want to play the character without ties to any established narrative.

January’s confirmed games

We saw the return of some absolute classics in January - Games With Gold offered their members:

Batman: The Telltale Series

Tekken 6 is actually the seventh main instalment in the Tekken franchise - one of the most successful fighting games series of all time.

FIGHTING TALK: If you haven't played any Tekken games, now's the time to start

Tekken 6 features bigger stages with more interactivity than its predecessors, such as walls or floors that can be broken to reveal new fighting areas.

The character customization feature has been enhanced, and certain items have implications in some aspects of gameplay.

This game includes all the puzzles and humour that earned the original LEGO Star Wars such popularity and acclaim.

Styx: Shards of Darkness

Styx returns in a new stealth adventure where players can explore huge open environments, assassinate enemies, and experiment with the vast array of lethal abilities and weapons in our assassin's arsenal.

STYX OR TWIST: Sneak your way around alone, or with a friend in coop mode
