As a reward/incentive to keep up their subscription, Xbox Live Gold members get two free games a month to download for a limited time on both the Xbox One and Xbox 360 . The titles range from older AAA blockbusters and cult indie hits to underrated gems and - very occasionally - a brand new release. Since November 2015, the two free Xbox 360 games have also been backwards compatible with the Xbox One, meaning owners of Microsoft's current gen console can effectively get four free games a month. The games are yours to keep, even if you cancel your Xbox Live Gold subscription after downloading them. Just select the 'Gold' tab on your Xbox One or Xbox 360. Alternatively, you can use the Xbox website. Even if you haven't upgraded to an Xbox One yet, you can still nab those games for free as long as you have an Xbox Live Gold account.

Epic addressed the unusually large size on Twitter: "We’re aware that the PS4 3.4.4 patch size is 10 GB, which was unexpected. "We’re looking into this issue right now, and apologize for the inconvenience." Update 1.53 was not released for Xbox and PC gamers, only for PS4.
