The Xbox Games with Gold program has been discontinued and replaced by the Xbox Game Pass Core subscription, which is functionally very different.
Do you remember Xbox Games With Gold? While it’s since been replaced by Xbox Game Pass Core, Games with Gold offered players a handful of free games each month. Xbox Games With Gold’s September 2021 free games weren’t anything to scoff at, though they weren’t all that incredible either.
In fact, with Games With Gold becoming known for its fairly lackluster line-up of games, it’s no surprise that Games With Gold was eventually canned for Game Pass Core. If you’re looking at picking up its replacement, take a look at all the Xbox Game Pass Core games that you can enjoy instead.
Xbox Games With Gold September 2021 free games
The Xbox Games With Gold September 2021 games were:
- Warhammer: Chaosbane (Xbox One) – September 1 to September 30, 2021
- Mulaka (Xbox One) – September 16 to October 15, 2021
- Zone of the Enders HD Collection (Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility) – September 1 to September 15, 2021
- Samurai Shodown II (Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility) – September 16 to September 30, 2021
The highlight was almost certainly Warhammer: Chaosbane, an action-RPG game set in the iconic Warhammer universe. Although it didn’t get rave reviews, there was still fun to be had here if you were in the mood for a fantasy RPG.
While Mulaka was a great indie title, it was overlooked. The other two were Xbox 360 games that most players never really had an interest in going back and playing anyhow.
