Xbox Free Play Days is back this week and Microsoft is giving you four games to play for free this weekend, including one very recent adventure game.

If you aren’t aware, Xbox Free Play Days does what it says on the tin, it offers up several games to try out, kind of like an extended demo, usually combined with the games being on offer.

If you aren't watching Deadpool and Wolverine this weekend you can spend it playing Xbox instead

This week you can choose from four games and headlining these is Sand Land, based on the popular manga and anime by Akira Toriyama of Dragon Ball fame.

Sand Land is an open-world action game with gorgeous visuals based on the renowned art of the late Toriyama. The trial for this game is only five hours, but it’ll give you a good opportunity to see if you want to invest in the full game.

You can take advantage of these games if you’re an Xbox Game Pass subscriber, so it’s more motivation to subscribe and get more for your money.

Next up is Dead By Daylight, the hugely popular multiplayer horror game that pits you and your friends against a roaming killer from a pool of horrifying villains, including several from horror film franchises.

It’s perfect for a group who play regularly and want some tense moments mixed in with hijinks.

Unturned is an open-world shooter where you’ll need to survive a zombie apocalypse with or without friends. It has some mild Minecraft vibes to it.

Then lastly there’s For Honor, which will be available until 1 August. This is a one-on-one combat game with complex weapon handling and realistic swordplay that will test your skills.

You can download any of these games right now and play them this weekend. It’s the perfect excuse to stay home, order a pizza, and spend hours in front of the Xbox.
