Microsoft has just confirmed the latest free Xbox games available with Free Play Days. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Xbox Game Pass Core members can play Hunt: Showdown 1896 and KEMCO RPG Selection Vol. 1 up until Sunday August 18, with the KEMCO RPG Selection Vol. 1 bundle including four RPGs.

Free Play Days features two (but technically four) free Xbox games this weekend

Hunt: Showdown 1896 is out today as a free Xbox Series X|S upgrade for Hunt: Showdown players. It has an almost-identical achievement list (with the original game's achievements now discontinued), and since Hunt: Showdown had an estimated completion time of around 60 to 80 hours, it's fair to assume you'll need that long if you're starting for the first time. However, if you've already completed the game, it looks as though that'll all carry across for you, judging from the forums here on TrueAchievements and the completion times of those who've already finished it.

Then there's KEMCO RPG Selection Vol. 1, which includes four RPGs: Asdivine Hearts, Revenant Saga, Antiquia Lost, and Dragon Sinker. This bundle came out yesterday, and individually here on TrueAchievements, those four RPGs have completion estimates ranging between 15 to 30 hours.

This week's Free Play Days games aren't included in Game Pass, but don't forget if you're an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Subscriber, to check out your Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks for August 2024.
