For nearly a decade now, Microsoft has been giving away free Games with Gold to its Xbox Live Gold subscribers. When Xbox Live Gold started, it gave subscribers two free Xbox 360 games per month, and then when the Xbox One launched, subscribers were treated to four games per month - two on Xbox One, and two on Xbox 360. Microsoft has shaken this pattern up a time or two, sometimes throwing in a bonus free game or offering an original Xbox game as a freebie in place of an Xbox 360 or Xbox One game title.

The Xbox free Games with Gold for September 2022 are rather significant as they mark the end of an era for the program. The Xbox free Games with Gold for September 2022 will be the last time that Xbox 360 games are given away for free, and so from October onwards, fans can only look forward to two free games per month in exchange for their subscription fee. The last batch of four Xbox free Games with Gold games are Gods Will Fall from September 1 to September 30, Double Kick Heroes from September 16 to October 15, Thrillville from September 1 to September 15, and Portal 2 from September 16 to September 30, with two of those games available a day early.

As tends to happen with the Xbox free Games with Gold, two of the games are available a day ahead of schedule. Starting now and until September 30, Xbox Live Gold subscribers can claim Gods Will Fall for their digital libraries. Additionally, theme park management game Thrillville will be available from now until September 15.

Xbox Free Games With Gold September 2022

  • Gods Will Fall (September 1 - September 30)
  • Double Kick Heroes (September 16 - October 15)
  • Thrillville (September 1- September 15)
  • Portal 2 (September 16 - September 30)

Of course, the headlining Xbox free Games with Gold game for September 2022 is Portal 2. Portal 2 will be the last free Xbox 360 game that fans can get with their subscription, and it's certainly seeing the service off with a bang. Portal 2 is one of the highest-rated Xbox 360 games of all time, with an impressive 95 overall rating. It's generally considered one of the best games ever released for the system, so it's a fitting way to cap off the free Games with Gold program for 360 users.

Besides these games, Xbox Live Gold subscribers still have until September 15 to claim one of the free Games with Gold for August 2022 in the form of ScourgeBringer.
