Games with Gold: The Witness and Cars 2: The Video Game are now free

As previously announced, two more games have been made free to Xbox Live Gold members today with Microsoft offering The Witness for the Xbox One and Cars 2: The Video Game for the Xbox 360, as part of the Games with Gold program. Note that thanks to backward compatibility, Cars 2 is also playable on Xbox One consoles.

The two games can be claimed right now via their respective store links listed below:

The Witness (Xbox One, April 1 - 30)

You wake up, alone, on a strange island full of puzzles that will challenge and surprise you.

You don't remember who you are, and you don't remember how you got here, but there's one thing you can do: explore the island in hope of discovering clues, regaining your memory, and somehow finding your way home.

The Witness is a single-player game in an open world with dozens of locations to explore and over 500 puzzles. This game respects you as an intelligent player and it treats your time as precious. There's no filler; each of those puzzles brings its own new idea into the mix. So, this is a game full of ideas.

Cars 2: The Video Game (Xbox 360, April 1 - 15)

From the makers of Toy Story 3: The Videogame comes Cars 2: The Video Game, where players can jump into the Cars 2 universe with some of their favorite Cars personalities in locations around the globe. Train to become an agent of C.H.R.O.M.E. (Command Headquarters for Recon Operations & Motorized Espionage) and take on dangerous missions, compete to become the fastest racecar in the world, or use your spy skills in exciting, action-packed combat racing!

Superhot is still up for grabs for those who missed the previous Games with Gold promotion, which will be replaced by Assassin's Creed Syndicate on April 15. Keep in mind that only claimed Xbox 360 games will remain playable if the Gold subscription is discontinued, while claimed Xbox One games are only accessible with an active subscription.

Meanwhile, several more games will be added to the Xbox Game Pass, Microsoft's $9.99/mo subscription program, on April 1. These include Cities: Skylines, theHunter: Call of the Wild, ClusterTruck, and more.
