March's Xbox Live Games with Gold Leaked, Double Games Teased For April?

March's Xbox Live Games with Gold Leaked, Double Games Teased For April?

Richard Walker

It appears that next month's Games with Gold have leaked online, with March apparently offering Tomb Raider and Bioshock Infinite for Xbox 360, while IDARB carries over for another month and Rayman Legends pops up as a new free game on Xbox One.

That's not all that's been revealed by the leak, however, with the screencapped image also revealing that Xbox Live Gold members have enjoyed 100 million free games through Games with Gold. To celebrate, that means Microsoft will be offering double the free games for April.

Obviously, this is all taken from the image below, and has yet to be officially confirmed. Should this all be legitimate - and it certainly looks that way - it looks like the next couple of months could be a good time to be an Xbox Live Gold member.

[Thanks to everyone who sent this in]

  • Hell yes! I'm excited for all of these. Hope it's true.
  • Very excited for Legends! We played the demo and my wife loved it too so it's awsome to be able to finally pick it up! Idarb was fun, it's a great game to pass time with when there's nothing else to do.
  • Yes, always wanted to try Bioshock Infinite after seeing all those great reviews for it!
  • Already finished Bioshock and Tomb Raider, already own Rayman on the One. Am I allowed to have a moan like the usual twats as I'm not happy with the selection?
  • Loved the story of Infinite and beat TR on the One. Definitely worth replaying on the 360 for the price of free :)
  • Aw, I already have Rayman Legends. Ah well, was bound to happen eventually. At least many more will get to enjoy that fantastic game. Genuinely one of the best on the One. Absolutely great game!
  • Are you serious? Bioshock Infinite was offered last year for Live gold members. Now my doubt is if MS will start to repeat these "free" gold live games. About XB1 one of the rare great deals is the EA access program which really offers a fair price for a decent list of games.
  • #7 No it wasn't, where did you pluck that from?
  • oh great.."free" games that i can get if i PAY for xbox live! its games with gold. they are NOT free. stop calling them such.
  • #9 fuck off please
  • All of these games are really good I can't wait to play them again. As for the double free games in April I hope it's true but let's all remember what 'holiday' April 1st is...
  • #8 he is just pimping EA crap. yeah..infinite was never a game with gold before.
  • #10 no....you can fuck off me "please". wasnt talking to you about it. dumbass
  • Best GwG month so far.
  • #9, I bet you're the type to ride on a plane first class and complain you get a decent meal included.
  • Funny, I paid same price for Gold before GwG existed. You pay for the service and get these games additionally at no EXTRA cost. Hence free for those with Gold. Simple.
  • if i remember bioshock 1 was a free game not infinite good list of games wanted rayman but never bought and would of prefered tomb raider on the one BUT if i like it i guess i canplay it again on the one :)
  • #13 I still think you should fuck off. Please.
  • If this is true, it'll be a great start for my Xbox One, even though I've gotten Rayman Legends on 3 systems already and am doing the challenges on PS3.
  • Sick! I played Tomb raider and bioshock on PC when they were released, so this is great news that I can get some free gamerscore on a couple of games that I was planning on re-purchasing any way! Awesome :D
  • #9 You're right. They're not free. They're a thank you to people who pay for Xbox Live. Wait... how is that not free? I've been a paying member of Xbox Live since 2004 on the original Xbox. For almost 10 years this subscription did not include games, so I do consider them "free" games.
  • Well damn, already played both and all DLC for Infinite. Least its more hard drive space saved.
  • No ! These are great games, but I would prefer other games since I already have both.
  • I did rayman on the 360, and whilst I loved it, it gets very grindy at the end. I guess I might have to do it again on the One now,
  • @18 stop liking your own comments lol. OT: Bioshock and Womb Raider both great games even if you pay for them so getting them free is a bonus. Never played Rayman but you can't turn it down if it's free man.
  • Wow, its actually rare (and refreshing) to see a comment thread concerning GWG not filled with whinning and complaining. Good month though. Both 360 games are excellent, and Rayman is loads of fun. I own all four, but nice additions to the collection for anyone who doesn't.
  • #25 No lol.
  • So are we getting 4 games on the xbox one in april
  • If u never played either Bioshock Infinite or Tomb Raider I highly recommend these games for the 360. Both are amazing (minus the MP for Tomb Raider, but great story).
  • Not sure if I believe this. The 'E' at the end of double is not in usual font.
  • I smell an april fools joke. It says twice the games ok there already giving us two games so if it is twice the games that mean 4 ganes in total but whats the other two games. Or they can even be saying double and when u look at it its two for xbox 360 and two for xbox one. Idk but i think theres a joke in this
  • I was going to get this a little while back but made up that it's free on GWG. As a gold member that only got something from MS if they screwed up and gave me a code for something or another i'm happy to save a few quid as most of you said earlier you pay for the service, to chat and play with friends and enjoy lots of other things. It's got my vote!
  • Maybe they'll put infinites season pass on sale.
  • I kind of hope this is fake. I have all these games :P And still not got round to playing two of them. On the other hand, its a sweet line up for anyone who doesn't have them!!
  • Would love Tomb Raider to be the extra free game on Xbox One!
  • If this is true then best game with gold yet. Bioshock fantastic but already own it, Tomb raider never played but always wanted to do can't wait rayman origins was awesome and never played legends so also can't wait :)
  • @9 and 13 (yes I know you are the same person).... you sir, are an idiot. they are free games for those who have gold. gold is paid, these games are free. Pretty simple really, but hey like I said before, IDIOT!!!
  • Sweet jesus, good games all across the board, bless you Microsoft.
  • *looks at In April we are giving twice the games" April 1st? Sounds fishy
  • If this is true, it's gonna be the best GwG month so far. Two best-selling AAA-games for free, what more can you ask for?
  • Wish the Tomb Raider was the Xbox one version! Never wanted to pay to "upgrade" from my xbox 360 version
  • @31 - The games listed in the article and on the image are the games for March.
  • Wow this is fantastic! My cousin got Bioshock infinite GOTY so ill copy all the DLC free and enjoy a second play through of Bioshock I and Tomb Raider. TY M$
  • Those are great titles. I own them all but those that don't you have some fun gaming coming your way. I like the x1 included a retail game too. Looking good
  • I have all these games and I'm still happy for all of them if this is true. They are all great games. This just means I have extra time now to catch up on my backlog!
  • 3 free games next month, will be awesome!Can I assume that April will be 4 new games(no carryover)?If so, even better.
  • That's a pretty solid lineup for March. I smell April Fools for twice the games in April. We'll see though.
  • @7 Bioshock I was on PSplus service a year ago which isnt free its a rental so think before you make us laugh at you.
  • I'm glad #IDARB is being carried over. Haven't been able to play my xbone due to "bad" grades, but I've got them back up, so I'll be sure to download that.
  • Cool I don't have Rayman, will definitely be downloading that next month
  • They wouldn't lie and say there's double games for April and then go HAHA NO THERE ISN'T APRIL FOOLS. It wouldn't be funny and it'd just cause a load of trouble. So assuming the leak is real, it won't be an April Fools joke.
  • Tomb Raider for free on the Xbox One please. Rayman Legends? Not a fan but i dont own the game so i will download and appreciate the fact were getting a proper full title free game. Wonder what the April offerings will be though - likely something that has been on sale this month but either way lots to be excited for. Especially if the Xbox One really does get more than just the usual one game plus whatever was offered the month before.
  • "Twice the free games". I think they mean double.
  • I have to say like last month's good games for people who don't have them but unfortunately already have or beaten these games on ps3, ps4, or 360. Also could they stop giving away games already been free on ps3 lol like brothers, bioshock infinite, and tomb raider.
  • Stop trying to catch PS+!! I already have too much to play!!
  • i did have rayman on my one but traded it in without completing it so this is nice also the only way your getting me to play assassins creed after three is if its free
  • well bugger me, im gonna need to start clearing some space.
  • this is actually a very good selection for xbox next month, sadly I already own the 360 games.
  • sorry but i wish it was the 360 version of rayman still very happy for march
  • Thats cool i guess, i played tomb raider on the 360 but it was a rented copy so i can go back and grab some more achievements. i own a copy on the one. i already have bioshock. so rayman should be good :)
  • Tomb Raider - great, hopefully MP will be populated for a few weeks so we can get those achievements! Bioshock Infinite - I only ever rented this, so will look forward to playing through it again :) Rayman - awesome. Loved origins!
  • Glad I can finally get Tomb Raider. Although I bought Infinite a couple months ago and completed it. But oh well it was an amazing game and worth the price I paid.
  • I've already played Legends on 360 and I'd happily play it again on the One... if it weren't for that damn Truly Awesome Achievement. I'll probably play it anyway and then hate myself for putting myself through that again.
  • cool, saw this leak yesterday, rayman was good but i sold it on as was not playing it, will give me time to revisit it now and enjoy it, idarb can suck a fat one, neverwinter also lands on march 31st, be interesting to see what the double games are in april, my thoughts it will be a new ID game and iv got the strongest feeling of sleeping dogs definitive edition, was going to purchase it yesterday, but somethings telling me its going free soon.
  • Would be nice of they offered an alternative for loyal gold members that happened to already buy those games.
  • Nice, best month for xbox one.
  • Does anybody know if you will get the Rayman legend online achievement which have already completed on 360 or xbox one has a different server ? because as far as I know, all your record was saved in server by your gamertag
  • #65 just feel happy that you actually went out and paid for some games like a decent human being, rather than waiting for them to become part of GwG. I think this month is the worst yet for me personally but never mind, 6 games next month :-)
  • @7: BioShock Infinite I believe was free for PlayStation Plus, not Xbox Live Gold. Also I have a feeling the double freebies will be to keep a disc-based game from being given away for two months straight, which is usually the case of the previous month's returning Xbox One freebie.
  • #8 you pay we will at the minum of $5.00 a month to play online an other advantages of having gold. xbox gives your at least $30 to $40 minum, in my opinion I think they are giving you these games for free.if you dont like then just get off of xbox and stop the complaining.
  • Fuck sake. I just bought Rayman too Oh well. Staff returns exist for a reason XD
  • Bioshock infinite was a psn+ game yes. Looking forward to Rayman Legends. Have the other 2 great games. Not mad about that fact at all.
  • I was just about to buy Tomb Raider as well, so this is great news. Can't wait!
  • Personally I came to the comments here straight away to see what the trolls would be outraged about. They kept complaint about not getting AAA titles for free(such an entitled complaint), now a whole month of them and we get the whole "but live isn't free" argument. I have both the titles for the 360, but even though there is nothing for me I'm happy for the selections. Not got around to Infinite yet but by all accounts it is hailed as one of the best titles to come out in the last few years, and as for Tomb Raider the single player was fantastic and hopefully the tons of new people getting it will open up the multiplayer for long enough for me to get a completion on it.
  • @samjustsam Yes it is free because you are paying for Live and get them at no additional cost just go back in your corner.
  • Pull the other one, it's got bells on.
  • Owned or own all the games :( still I am very happy with this choice of games for everyone else. Still working on the Rayman challenges for the one, brilliant game!
  • Whatever the games are, i always click purchase so even if im busy or not interested at the time, i can still download months later and give it a go. Need to make sure i can do it via my phone though as will be travelling for 3months soon
  • Two brilliant games on offer tomb raider and bioshock are amazing titles for free enjoy for anyone who has not yet played them!
  • At #9 wahhh I went to the bank today didn't get any free money. Wahh went to the supermarket didn't get any free cornflakes. Wahh went to BMW paid for an airfreshener never got a free car. Wahh I have to pay rent to live in the house I'm in.
  • Please tell me this is the 2011 Tomb Raider. I played that one on PS3 and it was bad ass, re-hooked me on the franchise again. I'd love to get a copy for my Xbox and have actually been eying it in the local used game store recently. Also hoping that there's a discount on Bioshock Inf dlc. I already have the game but I'd like to get a deal on the Burial at Sea episodes.
  • The leak is legit. http://news.xbox.com/2015/02/xbox-march-games-with-gold
  • Woo!! I got the 1000 in Rayman Legends on the 360 and now I have an excuse to play it again! I won't be getting the 1000 this time however haha
  • Neat. Haven't really been interested in Bioshock ever since the first, and I already completed Tomb Raider during a rental, but those are both good games and I can still nab Rayman. Things are lookin' up.
  • I already have rayman legends but, I'm glad to finally see a retail game (even a budget one) hit GWG. It's about fucking time!
  • lol..well im feeling the uber fanboy "love" for voiving my opinion. #18 i still think you can suck me...please. i still was not talking to you. #15 i cant fly first class. im poor. im 38 and working lower class and have no mummy and daddy to pay for my games.
  • This was some really good news if the leak is true, and also March looks like a good month for free games...not a fan of raiding tombs but this is good news for the people that are and Bioshock Infinite looked really good (and it makes me glad I resisted the impulse to buy it) And Rayman is one of those games where I've always wanted to play it but didn't want to spend money on it so this is perfect for me
  • @87 - Let's look at it like this: Everyday you go into Starbucks and buy a large coffee for $2. (If you're a hipster that hates Starbucks, replace that with whatever mom and pop shop you go to. And if you're from the UK, replace coffee with tea.). Everyday you get your coffee. Everyday without fail. It's always $2. It' doesn't fluctuate. Just $2, everyday. Now one day you go into Starbucks, and you buy your large coffee. And you pay your $2. And they hand you a free (yes, free) muffin. Or scone. Whatever. Your total is still $2. It's actually the same $2 you were already paying for your beverage. It doesn't go up. They don't call it free and then you notice you're actually paying $2.50. Again (and I really can't stress this enough at this point), the total is $2. Now, in this scenario, would you say you paid for the muffin/scone?
  • you have a good point #89 but i dont see it like that. if that muffin was given to you without having to buy the coffee..i would consider it free.
  • if the only way to get something is to buy something else..i see it as having to pay for it. and they do this to get people to get gold. not free to me. especially if you buy gold only to get games with gold.
  • Sam just sam pick your battles man. Every month you pull this same crap and troll these people. But the more I read your comments the more I realise your trolling yourself. Stick a quarter up your ass cause you played yourself!
  • Kinda glad I didn't buy Tomb Raider when it was on sale all those weeks ago, and double games in April? Heck yes. Microsoft knows how to please it's users.
  • Best GWG so far! I may own 2 out of 3 of them, but I'm happy a lot of people will get to play these awesome games. Really a step up from all the indie retro games we've been getting.
  • To all the people saying "April fools joke?", Microsoft is a massive company with millions of fans and a console race to win. They would be shooting themselves in the face if they were just fucking with the consumer. People need to fucking relax and enjoy these benefits.
  • Well, I suppose I can get the digital version of Bioshock Infinite for free and sell my hard copy. Not interested in anything else. Also #95 ATCS, there are plenty of ways a bullshit Photoshop job can get circulated enough for people to think it's true. You're extremely naive if you think everything always comes from the legitimate source.
  • Very cool, I don't have any of them its a complete win for me. fuck you #9 to.
  • Rayman is a must play for any old school side scrolling super mario fans, or fans of the first Rayman for that matter. the boss levels are pure genius!
  • there is plenty of titles out for the x1 now so why are we still getting only 1 new game a month and whats up with the crappy 8bit games on the one isn't it a next gen console not a 80's console?
  • Biosleep Infinite was a big dissapointment imo. I would rather play the first Bioshock. A true classic. Tomb Raider was very enjoyable...a bit short but very good. @#89 Well sometimes it's not a delicious muffin you get, sometimes it's a sh!tsandwich you get for 'free'. If that's the case they can keep their present for themselves.
  • me being a cheap bastard finally paid off. Free, better then cheap.
  • To the guys who keep saying that these are not free games: you buy gold for $60 it lasts a year. You get 4 games offered with GWG a month. 12 months in a year 12x4 =48 games a year between both systems. Let's say games average $30 between indies and AAA. $30x$48 = an ungodly number you'd probably rather not pay for your games. So in short, pay $60 for gold and get almost $1500 worth of content for your spoiled asses to enjoy. Bet you geniuses never thought of it that way.
  • #9 this person is correct they are not free. Xbox live is a subscription fee for supposedly server access, and to content otherwise excluded from now called silver membership. If these where available to silver member as well then they can be called free.
  • @99: They have never, ever given an 8-bit game for free on Xbox One. Nor has one been released on the platform.
