Xbox Announces Free Play Days For This Weekend
Xbox Live is holding a Free Play Days For All event this weekend, regardless of membership status.
The event allows people who are not subscribers of Xbox Live Gold to play with others online from now until 11:59 p.m. PST on Sunday on Xbox One and Xbox 360. Additionally, people can download and play Overwatch, Rainbow Six Siege, and NBA 2K18 for free until Free Play Days ends.
Normally, Gold memberships are required to play with friends online. It includes other benefits such as free monthly games and bigger discounts during sales events.
If you're wondering whether or not any of the three free games are worth the temporary downloads, check out our reviews for Overwatch (also our 2016 Game of The Year), Rainbow Six Siege, and NBA 2K18.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
