Games with Gold is closer to PlayStation Plus, with free games being the perk for your subscription to a paid online service. The announcement post seems to subtly push Gold subscribers towards Game Pass, saying, “If you’re an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate member, you get all the benefits of Xbox Live Gold.” Games with Gold still doesn’t have the prominence and prestige of the Xbox Game Pass additions, so don’t expect any new releases. LEGO Batman and Tropico 4 are both originally Xbox 360 games, playable on Xbox One and Series X/S via backward compatibility. Armello and Dungeons 3 were released on Xbox One in 20, respectively. The games are available for free to anyone with an active Gold or Game Pass Ultimate subscription.

It’s strange to hear these games referred to as “Xbox Live Games with Gold” given that we’re no longer referring to the new Xbox network as Xbox Live, but the name will probably be phased out over time.
