As 2021 begins, Xbox Live already has free games to offer. For all the members with a Live Gold subscription, a selection of free games arrives in January. As part of ‘Games with Gold’, Microsoft will offer at least four free games in the first month of 2021.
All of these are classic Xbox games that will also be available on the Series X|S via backward compatibility. The combined value of all the free games is $79.96 and they have a score of 3000 in Gamerscore.
Out of the four, only Little Nightmares is free throughout the month. The critically acclaimed 2017 game is getting a sequel next month. Therefore, it makes perfect sense to offer the game to players for free as a promotion.

All these games will be permanent downloads. Therefore, if players with a Gold subscription download them during the given window, they can access them as long as they are subscribed.
A lot of players are complaining that they would rather prefer fresh titles as freebies. However, it wouldn’t be a profitable model for Xbox to do so. For many, these titles aren’t as bad since they provide a trip down memory lane.
