Microsoft today announced the Games with Gold for April, 2017. If you're an Xbox Live Gold member, you should definitely be taking a look at these every month, as it offers four free games (two Xbox One and two backward compatible Xbox 360), as long as you claim them within the specified dates.
Here are this month's Games with Gold:

Assassin's Creed Revelations (Xbox 360, April 16 - 30)
When a man’s battles have been won and his enemies destroyed, what then? Where does he find purpose and meaning? To find answers to these questions, Ezio Auditore will travel east in search of the lost library of the Assassins. In Assassin’s Creed® Revelations, master assassin Ezio Auditore walks in the footsteps of the legendary mentor Altair, on a journey of discovery and revelation. It is a perilous path – one that will take Ezio to Constantinople, the heart of the Ottoman Empire, where a growing army of Templars threatens to destabilize the region. In addition to Ezio’s award-winning story, a refined and expanded online multiplayer experience returns with more modes, more maps and more characters, allowing you to test your assassin skills against others from around the world.
Interestingly, neither of the two Xbox 360 games are on the Xbox One Backward Compatibility list just yet. You'll probably see those added at some point between now and when they're offered through Games with Gold.
Also, it's not too late to claim some of this month's Games with Gold. Layers of Fear (Xbox One) and Heavy Weapon (Xbox 360) are available until the end of the month, and you can grab Evolve Ultimate Edition (Xbox One) until April 15.
Microsoft also recently announced the Xbox Game Pass, which will provide access to over 100 games for $10 per month. That should launch this spring, but if you're in the Alpha ring of the Xbox Insider Program, you can try it out until April 7.
