July’s Games with Gold for Xbox was a bit light compared to its competitor Playstation Plus, but Microsoft is heating it up for August!

Throughout the month, Xbox One and 360 owners will be given a nice little buffet of all sorts of games to dig into. For Xbox 360 (and One owners) this includes the original Bayonetta and Red Faction: Armageddon. Xbox One users will also get to enjoy Slime Rancher and Trails Fusion.  Are you excited for this months line-up? 

Personally, I can’t wait to finally sink countless hours into Bayonetta since I was never able to get my hands on the original or its sequel Bayonetta 2. Check out the video below for more details on when these’ll be available for download.
