The days of needing an Xbox Live Gold membership to play free-to-play games are over. Today, the folks at Xbox finally make free-to-play games truly free. Games like Fortnite, Warzone, Apex Legends, Destiny 2, make up the more than 50 free-to-play games now playable without an Xbox Live Gold membership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs part of listening to your feedback, this change will take place starting today, and all Xbox players will be able to access online multiplayer at no charge for a library of over 50 free-to-play games that support online multiplayer,\u201d reads part of today\u2019s blog post.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s the full list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today\u2019s change has been in the works since January when Xbox tripped over themselves when they announced a price hike to Xbox Live Gold. After a swift community backlash, Xbox walked back the announced hike<\/a>, and also announced free-to-play games would no longer require a Gold membership. During the January announcement, they said it would take some time to implement the change. Today, that change goes live.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n This also means folks can play Halo Infinite\u2019s multiplayer without paying for Gold when it hits its expected launch date later this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
