It’s that time again! Microsoft just unveiled next month’s Xbox Live Games With Gold lineup, and it’s fantastic. We got this reveal way sooner than we had anticipated, but then, March does actually begin next week (believe it or not). As usual, there will be a few games available as soon as March 1 rolls around, and then a pair of games will join the lineup midway through the month.

If you don’t have a current subscription to Xbox Live, by the way, it’s currently on sale for super cheap. You can score three months of Xbox Live Gold for only $15 right here.
This month the big headliners for Xbox One are Trials of the Blood Dragon and Superhot, both of which are fantastic titles.
