Take a trip

Yes it’s time to take a little journey, Xbox fans. It’s time to travel across the years, across the very generations of consoles, if you will. But you don’t need a DeLorean for any of it, as this month’s selection of Xbox freebies will do it for you.

The list includes games that saw release in 2010, 2015, and 2021. So you get three different time periods, in 4 games, and the selection isn’t half-bad either.

How may Broken Sword games are there? I get the feeling there are about a dozen, but I might be a bit off with that. Nevertheless, the adventure series sports a recognizable name, and a pretty big fanbase. So if you’re one of the them, it should be a welcome sight in this collection of gratis titles.

As for the rest, Hydrophobia and Band of Bugs might be a little long in the tooth, but they both were pretty well received, if I remember right. And then there’s Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield, which is fairly new and released just last year.

• Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse ($24.99 ERP): Available February 1 to 28
