Xbox Games With Gold & PlayStation Plus Free Games for July Revealed

Microsoft and Sony have pulled the curtain on next month’s free games for premium Xbox Live and PlayStation Plus members. A fresh assortment of free downloadable games will be available on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4 and PlayStation Vita from the 1^st of July.

Every month, premium members of Xbox Live and PlayStation Plus are privy to a host of free games on their favourite consoles. The quality of free releases tends to fluctuate but every now and then, they give players a gem as a little bonus for maintaining a premium membership. Some examples of those times both platforms have been particularly kind to players include April 2015 when Xbox Live offered the classic pirate adventure Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and even just this June PlayStation Plus have let players have Call of Duty: Black Ops III for free.

This coming July, Xbox Live are releasing twin-stick shooter Assault Android Cactus and Death Squared, a multiplayer co-op brain teaser by SMG for Xbox One on the 1^st and 16^th respectively. For Xbox 360, players can enjoy Virtual Fighter 5: Final Showdown from July 1^st and Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Conviction, the sixth of eight instalments in the series released back in 2010 on the 16^th.

PS4 users will be getting martial arts RPG Absolver and choice-based noir thriller Heavy Rain for free this month. PlayStation Plus are also giving PS3 players Rayman 3 HD and Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess as well as Space Overlords and Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma PlayStation Vita.

If you haven’t yet taken advantage of June’s free games, it’s not too late. You can still pick up LEGO Indiana Jones 2 on both Xbox consoles. Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia is still available on Xbox One as well as Smite which can still be downloaded until July 15^th.

PlayStation Plus is still offering Squares and Atomic Ninjas on Vita, Zombie Driver HD: Complete Edition and Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier on PS3 and Trials Fusion and XCOM 2 on PS4 until July 3^rd and as a bonus, PlayStation Plus members can download Call of Duty: Black Ops III for free until July 11^th. I think we can all agree it’s not an exemplary line-up this month from either console but then who can say no to a free game?
