Xbox users can now dive into a fresh Free Play Days event, featuring a hand‑picked roster of games to explore over the weekend.

Microsoft’s latest promotion showcases marquee titles such as the newest PGA TOUR 2K25 and the critically acclaimed racing simulator Assetto Corsa.

Analysis: By bundling high‑profile titles with its subscription service, Microsoft is capitalizing on the growing demand for curated, value‑driven promotions. Spotlighting flagship games like PGA TOUR 2K25 and Assetto Corsa not only attracts existing fans but also incentivizes new subscribers, strengthening the platform’s competitive edge in a crowded market.

Nearly every game in the lineup is gated behind an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with a single exception that is free for all users.

At the forefront of the free‑to‑play selection stands Dead by Daylight, a veteran asymmetric survival‑horror title that many players already know. In this tense four‑versus‑one multiplayer experience, participants toggle between the roles of desperate survivors and relentless killers, battling for supremacy.

The Dead by Daylight promotion extends through Monday, June 22, granting players an additional day of gameplay beyond the standard Free Play Days window.

Xbox Game Pass members—whether on the Ultimate, Premium, or Essential tiers—now have instant access to the critically acclaimed tycoon title Two Point Museum, the high‑fidelity circuit racing simulator Assetto Corsa, and 2K’s immersive golf simulation that lets players build a career alongside real‑world pros and courses.

Locating these new additions on Xbox is straightforward: launch the Store, navigate to the Home sidebar, and tap the Subscriptions tab. The entire Free Play Days lineup will appear here, making it simple to jump straight into the games.

Beyond the Dead by Daylight promotion, the current Free Play Days window closes Sunday, June 21 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
