Xbox 360 Has 7 Free Games You Can Claim Right Now

Highlights

  • The Xbox 360 store is closing on July 29, so grab discounted games now before they’re gone forever.
  • Seven free games are available to claim, including Crackdown and Doritos Crash Course.
  • These free games are all backward compatible and playable on newer Xbox consoles as well.



The Xbox 360 currently has seven free games available for users to claim, and while these games have all been free for a while, some fans are running out of time to snag them. On July 29, the Xbox 360 digital marketplace will shut down forever. This will make some games completely unavailable, and others incredibly hard to find, and so the platform is currently enjoying some major discounts.

To help fans prepare for the Xbox 360 store closure on July 29, many of the console’s digital games have been heavily discounted. Some titles are available for a whopping 90% off, giving fans one last chance to better-complete their digital collection of Xbox 360 games. It should be noted that even after the store closes down, Xbox 360 gamers will still be able to re-download their previous purchases.

Gamer Buys Classic Xbox 360 Console and Makes Huge Mistake

A gamer purchases a classic Xbox 360 console, but makes a huge mistake after trying to testing some games on it.

While Xbox fans are browsing the Xbox 360 marketplace in search of games to claim before the store closes, they may want to make sure that they’ve claimed the console’s seven free games. At the time of this writing, the Xbox 360 is giving away seven games completely free of charge, with these titles having been made free on the platform at different points over the years. The free Xbox 360 games are Aegis Wing, Doritos Crash Course, Crackdown, Crackdown 2, Harms Way, Hexic HD, and Too Human. Those with only an Xbox 360 handy and no plans to upgrade to Microsoft’s latest consoles will especially want to make sure that they claim these free games before the store closes on July 29.


Xbox 360 Free Games List

  • Aegis Wing
  • Doritos Crash Course
  • Crackdown
  • Crackdown 2
  • Harms Way
  • Hexic HD
  • Too Human


Xbox fans that have upgraded to Microsoft’s latest consoles don’t have to stress as much because all these games are backward compatible. Even though the Xbox 360 store is closing, the platform’s games that have been made playable on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S consoles will still remain available for purchase on those platforms. This means that these games should still be free to claim to anyone on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.

As far as the quality of the games go, they vary wildly. Doritos Crash Course is actually more fun than one might think, while Crackdown is an action-packed open world game that is certainly one of the 360’s more unique titles. Too Human is perhaps the most intriguing free 360 game, as it has a rather bizarre development history and some consider it to be one of the platform’s more underrated titles.
