assassinscreed1Xbox Live Gold members will now receive two free Xbox One games per month.

Microsoft announced the new deal today as part of its Games with Gold program, which already gave Xbox Live Gold subscribers two free Xbox 360 games per month.

Starting in July, Gold members will be able to download two Xbox One games: Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag from July 1 to July 31, and So Many Me from July 16 to July 31.

For Xbox 360, Plants vs. Zombies will be available from July 1 to July 15, while Gears of War 3 will be available from July 16 to July 31.

Microsoft had recently given away one or two Xbox One games a month as part of Games with Gold, but today’s announcement makes it official.

Earlier this month, Microsoft announced that the Xbox One will be able to play Xbox 360 games — making its newest console backward-compatible with titles originally created for its previous generation of console hardware.
