Xbox Live Gold members have four offerings for November that will help them make it to the Xbox Series X release on November 10th

Honestly, we’re just killing time until the Xbox Series X comes out on November 10th. It’s going to be a great month for gamers.

But before we even make it ten days into the month, we have our new free games we need to discuss!

Below are the offerings for November,  the systems they’re on, and the dates they’re available to download:

  • Aragami: Shadow Edition, November 1-30 on Xbox One
  • Swimsanity!, November 16 – December 15 on Xbox One
  • Full Spectrum Warrior, November 1-15 on Xbox 360 and Xbox One
  • Lego Indiana Jones, November 16-30 on Xbox 360 and Xbox One

Watch the official announcement trailer from Microsoft below:

The kind of feel like filler games to make it to the Series X launch, but free games are free games. Let’s jump right in!

Aragami: Shadow Edition includes the prequel game/DLC, Nightfall. Play as an undead assassin who has the power to control shadows. The mechanics are pretty simple and easy to learn and it’s plenty of stealth. Moments may remind you of Ghost of Tsushima, too. There are still a few bugs in the game, too, so don’t be surprised if they crop up.

Next up is Swimsanity!. It’s the standard monthly offering of a multiplayer game; this month it’s an underwater co-op shooter. It’s a little reminiscent of Fall Guys on Playstation. But really it’s only fun if you have people to play it with. The zaniness definitely helps, too. You have your choice of 150 challenges across 8 gaming modes, so you won’t get bored easily either.

Full Spectrum Warrior is an old school Xbox game. It started out as a military training simulator commissioned by the US Army, which is a fun fact. But it kind of leaves the rest of the game lacking, as you aren’t ever actively aiming or firing weapons, aside from grenades. If you’re looking for a simple old school throwback, this one’s for you.

Lastly, we have Lego Indiana Jones. There’s not much I can really say about this one. If you’re a fan of any of the LEGO games or even a huge Indiana Jones fan, it’s worth picking up. You just play through so many iconic moments from the movies, it’s a fun thing to watch and interact with.

Don’t forget you can still download one of October’s offerings (Maid of Sker) through November 15!
