Xbox has revealed February’s Games With Gold lineup that Xbox Live Gold subscribers on Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X are getting for the second month of 2022. And like almost every month in 2021, the lineup is very disappointing. If the removal of dislikes on YouTube benefited anyone, it benefitted Xbox when it releases a trailer each month to highlight the Games With Gold lineup. Every time, with few exceptions, it was religiously downvotted. This month would certainly not be one of the aforementioned exceptions.ย

Also like most months, the lineup consists of four games, two of which are Xbox One games and two of which are Xbox 360 games. There are still no Xbox Series X/S games being offered through the subscription service. Meanwhile, original Xbox games are occasionally offered, but more commonly it’s two Xbox 360 games and two Xbox One games.
According to Xbox, this month’s offering represents $62 in savings, but this is assuming you’re buying each and every game at full price, which absolutely no one is doing in 2022.ย
Below, you can read more about each game and find out information about availability because, as always, the lineup will be a staggered release. Meanwhile, below this, you will find the aforementioned trailer.
