Microsoft just announced its “free” games for the month of January 2023. The games aren’t bad, but some will say there’s nothing left to eat at this point.
Since Microsoft has decided to schedule its monthly games offered as part of Xbox Games With Gold, we have to admit that gamers are feeling really offended. For its part, while Sony continues to offer very large games in its PS Plus despite the changes to its subscriptions, the green company prefers to focus on Xbox Game Pass.
List of Xbox Games With Gold games for January 2023
And with Xbox Game Pass being regularly updated and sometimes (often actually) hosting very, very large games as soon as they are released, gamers are left wondering what else is Xbox Games With Gold good for. And if December 2022 has already disappointed you, January’s games are unlikely to change your mind about Microsoft’s service.
2023 starts very quietly with two standalone games completely under the radar, but fortunately rather well. First of all there is iris fall, a puzzle game with a unique artistic direction that features multiple psychedelic puzzles and often plays with perspective. Ony embodies a young girl who has to make her way through a universe that is as poetic as it is dark, halfway between a Aliceby American McGee and a little nightmares. And finally autonaut, a sandbox game where you have to colonize different planets by building everything yourself. It will also be possible to automate all the infrastructure and harvest countless resources to create a real paradise for little robots. An extremely colorful game with a totally cubic artistic direction. Two titles that were pretty well received when they were released, especially on steam where they harvestgreat feedback from the players.
