Xbox drops 4 games you've 48 hours to play free

Microsoft just announced which games are going to be available during the next Free Play Days event this September, and fans of shooting stuff and punching stuff are going to be thrilled with what’s on offer.

Free Play Days is a monthly event that Microsoft holds for Xbox owners who have active Game Pass subscriptions, with the current Free Play Days event ending on the 15th of September this month.

As detailed in the Xbox Wire blog post, you’ll need an active Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Xbox Game Pass Core or Xbox Game Pass Standard subscription to redeem the games for the next few days.

The four games listed are EA Sports UFC 5, Classified: France ’44, Overcooked! All You Can Eat, and Rainbow Six Siege - the latter of which will be available for an extra day.

As far as the punching stuff crowd is concerned, EA Sports UFC 5 should satiate your need to bonk people on a budget for the next few days.

The game was released to semi-decent reviews when it came out last year, although some reviewers did note that the roster of playable fighters was somewhat lacking when compared to the previous EA Sports UFC title that released before it.

Overcooked! All You Can Eat might also appeal to the punching stuff crowd, although only if you enjoy punching the air in frustration every time your co-op partner screws you over.

The game serves as a compilation of both Overcooked and Overcooked 2, which are beloved cooking simulators that see you attempting (by which I mean failing) to run a restaurant while several panic-inducing disasters block your progress.

Classified: France ’44 and Rainbow Six Siege are for the shooting stuff crowds, although both will likely appeal to completely different player bases.

Classified: France ’44 is a turn-based squad shooter, something more akin to X-Com, and received fairly decent reviews when it was released earlier this year.

Rainbow Six Siege is a first-person team shooter however, which is relatively well regarded (although has received several complaints in regards to its poor balancing issues over the years). Just don’t expect to jump in and be good at the game immediately, given how hardcore the player base is.
