This weekend, gamers who are subscribed to Xbox Game Pass Core or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will be able to take part in an exclusive ‘FreePlayDays’ event. It runs until Sunday, October 22nd at 23:59 PDT, and until then, NBA 2K24, Lawn Mowing Simulator, Hokko Life, and Diablo VI will all be free to play – with some limitations and caveats.
Which game will you be playing for free first?
Diablo IV Is Available For Everyone
Now, Diablo IV is a unique title in this proposition. It doesn’t require that users have an existing Game Pass subscription – it can be accessed for free by any Xbox user for the duration of the FreePlayDays event. However, this is where one of those limitations comes into play – gamers can only access the game for ten hours.
This is part of a new initiative by Xbox to unlock some of the ‘hottest games’ for its users for limited trial periods – and it all starts with Diablo IV. Not only that, but most – if not all – of the games featured in the FreePlayDays event will also be placed on sale, so if you enjoy the game based on the Timed Trial period, then you can pick it up at a discounted price.
That’s certainly the case with Diablo IV, which is currently enjoying a 25% discount in the Xbox store.
Lawn Mowing Simulator is there too if you’re interested – that’s more than 50% off this weekend.
