Games with Gold is serving up Dead Rising and Breakdown, so get ’em while you can

I’ll never forget the maintenance tunnel route

Just a quick Friday afternoon reminder before the weekend gets here: you can now grab and for free on💯 Xbox through Games with Gold. The promo jusᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚt popped up today.

Most of us have played Dead Rising before, and many of us adore the original in ways that the later entries – not even Dead Rising 2 – could completely top, but maybe you don’t have the 2016 edition. There’s something about the intricate mall shelves that I hold near and dear even in the modern era. I used to stress out about the time limit and missable story beats, but I’ve learned to appreciate them.

As for Breakdown, I mostly know it for the weirdly iconic “glowing red fist” box art. Having never played Namco’s first-person action game on the original Xbox, I’m expecting to feel bewildered.

It’s also not too late to redeem , and I suggest you do. Nice little creepy romp. (The cutoff is January 31 for Breakdown and Little Nightmares, and February 15 for Dead Rising.)
