October’s Xbox Games with Gold Lineup Announced

Overcooked and Hitman: Blood Money Headline Xbox Games with Gold Next Month

During Tuesday’s Inside Xbox broadcast, Microsoft confirmed their Games with Gold lineup for October next month.

As usual, there are four games to snag for free. On the Xbox One side of things, Gold subscribers can download the amazing co-op cooking game, Overcooked from October 1st to the 31st. The action RPG Viktor Vran: Overkill Edition will also be available from October 16th to November 15th.

On the Xbox 360 is the awesome Hitman: Blood Money from October 16th to the 31st while Stuntman: Ignition can be yours from October 1st to the 15th. As is the norm now, both Xbox 360 titles are backwards compatible on Xbox One. If you’re new to Xbox Live Games with Gold, all you need to do is redeem each game either from Xbox.com or via your Xbox One console from the Gold menu tab.

Overcooked!

October’s selection of titles may not be as strong as previous months, but we’re all huge fans of Overcooked here at the COGconnected headquarters. And while Overcooked 2 was released only last month — and may even arguably be the better game — the original Overcooked is still an absolute blast to play; just make sure you bring a friend along with you.

As for Hitman: Blood Money, since Hitman 2 is launching on November 13th, it might not be a bad idea to refresh your memory with one of the series best games.
