Overview
- The Free Play Days promotion began Thursday, Oct. 8 and runs through Sunday, Oct. 11, offering seven titles to try for free or as timed trials.
- The lineup includes ARC Raiders, High on Life 2, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Little Nightmares III, Rogue Waters, Screamer, and Family Man with access types varying by game.
- Screamer and Family Man require an Xbox Game Pass subscription for full play while several others such as S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Little Nightmares III, and Rogue Waters are listed as timed trials available to all players.
- ARC Raiders is a major draw this weekend because it launched the Frozen Trail update, is free to play on Xbox through the promotion, and is also available on PC and PlayStation.
- All featured games are discounted during the window and any achievements or Gamerscore earned in timed trials carry over if players buy the full game, making the event a targeted opportunity for discovery and purchases.
