Watch Dogs
The video game series by Ubisoft’s is one of the most successful franchises by the developer. The original game is coming in June on the Xbox One as a part of Xbox Games With Gold program. The open world action-adventure game was released in 2014, and last year, the company released its sequel. The game is designed in a way that it allows players to explore different areas of the city, suburbs, countryside and nearby towns as well.
Assassin’s Creed III
Another jewel from Ubisoft coming to Xbox 360 in June is Assassin’s Creed III. The fifth installment in the game series is a direct sequel to the Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, which was released on 2011. The game is playable on the Xbox One through backwards compatibility. Set in an open world environment, the game primarily focuses on the combat between Desmond and Connor. The game also showcases stealth abilities of these characters.

Phantom Dust DLC
Gold members will get a free multiplayer DLC pack for Phantom Dust. The DLC would normally cost US$14.99. The game is re-released on Xbox One and Windows 10 for free. The best thing about this re-release is that the original game is not changed to a great extent. The game still works in the way the original Phantom Dust does. The remastered version is there to add more convenience for the players. Since the original game features single player gameplay but lacks the charm of rapidly growing eSports, the Phantom Dust brings the multiplayer element as well.
Overall, the Xbox Games With Gold subscribers are going to get massive amount of great content to play in June. The arrival of AAA titles in the month has made fans happy, and choosing to pay for the subscription doesn’t seem to be a decision someone would want to regret for. As the competition with Sony is growing day by day, Microsoft is making sure that its current users won’t leave it, while it is successfully managing to attract new players as well.
