Every month, Xbox offers free titles with their Games With Gold program that allows players to get their game on – for free – while their membership is still active. February’s games have been revealed that brings a little something for everyone next month.
Whether you are feeling a light-hearted challenge with Super Bomberman R, or looking to get your gore on with Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, there’s quite the selection spanning across genres for the next month. Or, if you want to go last gen, you can experience the brotherhood in more detail with an Assassin’s Creed favorite.

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon
Jump into retro-style gaming with Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon. With the involvement of the legendary Koji Igarashi, this action-adventure title harkens back to some of the classic side-scrolling games of the past. Switch your play among several different characters, each with their own unique abilities, as you travel perilous lands to defeat the evil demon lurking in the forbidden castle.
Super Bomberman R
Step into the fun, because Super Bomberman R is back and better than ever! Eight Bomberman heroes journey to space to fight the Evil Emperor Buggler, but now with the help of the Master Chief — exclusive to the Xbox One version — use your state-of-the-art combat armor to help win the day. Play alone or with a friend because this is the biggest Bomberman game ever.
The Xbox 360 games that are available next month are also a part of the Xbox Backwards Compatibility program, so if you don’t have the last gen console anymore — that doesn’t mean you have to miss out.

February 1st will offer Assassin’s Creed Rogue until February 15yh, while Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy will be free until the end of the month.

Continue the adventures of your ancestors in Assassin’s Creed Rogue. Set in the chaotic moments of the French and Indian War, relive the days of Shay Patrick Cormac, a fearless young outcast assassin who slowly morphs into a deadly assassin hunter due to tragedy.

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
Learn the ways of the Force from Jedi Master Luke Skywalker in Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy.
