Guacamelee! STCE and Max: Curse of the Brotherhood will be available until July 31^st so make sure to pick these two games up.

On the Xbox 360, the current free game is Battleblock Theater, which will be available until July 31^st.

Crimson Dragon is the first of the Panzer Dragon series to arrive on Xbox One. It was a launch title and scored mediocre scores. Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut is another rail shooter only this time the players control a giant robot suit instead of a dragon. Strike Suit Zero also given mediocre scores.

Motocross Madness is yet another game about, surprise, motocross. And the final game for August is a AAA title, Dishonored, about a tale of revenge. Dishonored scored relatively well and will be a fun addition to the Games with Gold program.
