Games with Gold January 2023: these are free games for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One

Microsoft has officially confirmed the games included in the Games with Gold program for the month of January 2023. Subscribers to this service or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will be able to redeem these two games, perhaps somewhat unknown, but that may surprise you if you give them a chance, as they do not have bad reviews. We tell you what they are.

These are the first Games with Gold in 2023

On one hand, we will be able to download Iris Fall, a game that under its simple color palette hides a classic adventure based on puzzles, and above all, with a very personal artwork. The game has environmental puzzles, with intelligent use of light and shadow, and has very positive ratings on Steam, making it a delightful game.

Meanwhile, the other game is Autonauts, a colony simulation game with cute robots as protagonists. "Travel the universe colonizing uninhabited planets with the sole goal of setting worlds in motion through the power of automation," says the official description on Steam. “Create rudimentary crafting items from blueprints and slowly build a number of workerbots to aid in your efforts. Teach and shape their artificial intelligence with a visual programming language, then instruct them to begin the formation of your colony." It also has very good ratings and also boasts a remarkable 80-average score on Metacritic.

The end of 2022 on Game Pass

However, as everyone knows, Xbox's star subscription service is Game Pass, and subscribers have ended this year well served. During this month of December, games such as LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Eastward, Chained Echoes, Metal Hellsinger or High on Life, which we were able to review recently, have been added. Unfortunately, there are also games leaving the service, and some of them are of great quality, such as Dragon Quest XI, Aliens: Fireteam Elite or Firewatch.
