The second game Xbox players can get their hands on isTekken 6, which will be available on the Xbox 360. Part of the iconic fighting franchise,Tekken 6is a multifaceted and competitive fighting game with a large roster. It released back in 2007 and has since become one of the franchise’s more divisive entries, garnering both its share of praise and criticism from the wide player base. UnlikeStyx, Tekken 6will only be available until January 15, so Games with Gold players shouldn’t wait around on claiming their free copy.
While both these titles are available today,Games with Goldusers will be getting another batch of games on January 16. Xbox One owners will receive a copy ofBatman: The Telltale Seriesand Xbox 360 users will get their hands onLego Star Wars 2: The Original Trilogy.Both games are strong titles that will keep players busy while they eagerly await the bigger releases coming to Xbox One in the early months of 2020.
PlayStation users will also be getting a batch of free games through Sony’s PS Plus subscription later this month. The lineup for January 2020 will see players get their hands onUncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection,which contains the original trilogy ofUnchartedgames, as well as the cult-classicGoat Simulator.While technically receiving four renown games on PS Plus is no doubt impressive, many have complained thatthe lineup seems somewhat lackluster. It remains to be seen if Sony has some more attractive titles on the cards for PS Plus in the coming months.
