If you already have the Xbox Ultimate Game Pass, then you already have access to a massive library of games to choose from. But until this weekend only, three new games are available on the Xbox Game Pass as part of Microsoft's Free Play Days.

Two of these games we can vouch for with the third one being a bit of a mystery, good thing you can play it for free! The Free Play Days promotion ends on January 17 so you still have time to test these games out before you may or may not buy them. Wait hold up, I see what you did there Xbox! Get me hooked on a game for free and let me continue my save file for the mere purchase of the very game I was just playing for free! Nice one Microsoft...

Play Yooka-Layee for Free With the Xbox Ultimate Game Pass

Okay, this one I have never played or even heard of so it's hard to say anything hype or meme on it. Only thing we can do is let YouTube guide our hands and hopefully not towards the close window button!
