While it was once necessary to be an Xbox Live Gold subscriber to enjoy Free-to-Play games, Microsoft finally abandoned this condition after facing controversy. The American giant had in fact announced a price increase, following which the brand faced a wave of general indignation. Microsoft then reversed course and allowed Free-to-Play to be played without even subscribing to Xbox Live Gold. Although today it has been replaced by Xbox Game Pass Core, the same rule still persists, you do not have to subscribe to this new subscription or to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to play more than one for free hundred games!
We have listed the 136 games playable for free on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. We have taken care to bold a selection of titles that are worth the detour.
