Xbox Live Gold Members Get “Crackdown,” “Dead Rising 2” and “Dead Rising 2: Case Zero” for Free in August

More free games are on the way, courtesy of Games with Gold on Xbox 360. Xbox Live Gold members worldwide can continue building their collection of digital games on Xbox 360 with three new titles, available for free download for a limited time starting tomorrow.

The August line-up of titles includes:

“Crackdown” ($14.99 ERP)  – Available between August 1 and 15

“Dead Rising 2” ($29.99 ERP) and “Dead Rising 2: Case Zero” (400 Microsoft Points) –  Available between Aug. 16 and 31

Hand-picked from our catalog of Games on Demand and Xbox Live Arcade favorites, “Crackdown” pushes the action genre with three-dimensional persistent playground, highly innovative co-op gameplay and an extensive prop interaction system. The game received top reviews from
Eurogamer and OXM UK.


Ahead of the launch of “Dead Rising 3,” take a look back at its predecessors that took the franchise to a new level of zombie-killing fun. “Dead Rising 2” was rated 9.5/10 by Game Informer and “Dead Rising 2: Case Zero” received an “A” from the New York Post.

Like the other Games with Gold titles, they’re yours to keep. Download the games directly on your Xbox 360 console or from the
Xbox Games Store, which will automatically download to your Xbox 360 console the next time you log on.

Stay tuned as we continue to release two free games each month. More details on the Games with Gold program are available
