Xbox drops 4 free downloads you can grab now, no Game Pass required

If you want to check out four video games today for free with no Xbox Game Pass subscription required, then you’re in the right place.

It is extremely frustrating when we spend our hard-earned money on a video game that sucks. This is exactly why subscription services such as Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus can be fantastic money savers, because a monthly subscription fee alone is much cheaper than a full-priced AAA new release.

Check out the Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree trailer below!

However, it’s even better when we can try out video games that won't cost us a penny, not even a subscription to Xbox Game pass or PlayStation Plus. With that in mind, I’ve picked out four newly released Xbox demos that you can download and play today for free.

• Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree: “Slash, burn, and rage your way through Mandragora, a 2.5D side-scroller action-RPG with deep Metroidvania and Soulslike elements. Light your Witch Lantern, enter the dark realm of Entropy, and tear reality asunder.”
• Into the Restless Ruins: “Is a roguelike deck builder. Use your deck of cards, representing rooms and corridors, to grow the labyrinth of the ruins. Then auto-battle your way through them, harvesting as much Gilmour as you can from the cursed residents before darkness overcomes your torch.”
• 3D Don't Die Mr. Robot: “Take the role of Mr. Robot who has been trapped in a highly dangerous and rather fruity dimension called the Neon Dunjun. The only way to survive is to collect fruits which explode on contact, destroying any enemies in their blast radius, helping Mr. Robot to cheat death for a few more moments.”
• Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land: “In a world where alchemy is deemed "taboo," the alchemist Yumia yearns for the truth of the lies hidden in a ruined continent. The time has come for her to take the first step on her grand adventure across the continent.”

So, there you have it, those are just four demos from the many available on the Xbox Marketplace that you can download and play today for free.
