Xbox is giving out a trio of free games that any players on the console can claim right now, giving bite-sized experiences perfect for some fast achievements. The iconic Microsoft gaming brand has solidified itself as a juggernaut within the industry since the debut of the first Xbox in 2001, becoming one of the big three console developers. The Xbox Series X/S has sold tens of millions of consoles worldwide, with the Xbox’s online marketplace boasting a wide variety of different games for players to try out. However, the Microsoft brand’s achievements have been one of the console line’s biggest innovations.
Microsoft first introduced achievements to the Xbox brand with the launch of the Xbox 360 in 2005. Achievements, and the iconic Xbox Gamerscore attached to a player’s total count, paved the way for plenty of other platforms, like Steam and PlayStation, to follow suit with their own achievements. “Gamerscore” has also become a particular bragging point for many Xbox gamers, with some players actively seeking out games with easy-to-earn achievements to add to their repertoire. Now, Xbox fans can pick up three new games for free, with two boasting some quick and easy achievements.
