Xbox Games With Gold’s Free Offerings This Month Will Get You In The Spooktober Spirit

Xbox

Spooky scary.

Xbox has revealed the freebies For Xbox Games with Gold for the month of October. And, since all have some sort of horror theme (in one or two cases, extremely tenuously), they should get you in the spirit of Halloween.

Notably, the major focus game of the month is Maid of Sker, which is also the most recent, having been released July this year. The total value of everything released this month is over $60. As usual, you need to have Xbox Live Gold of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to get them, but that’s still a pretty sweet deal.

Here’s the month in games:
