Xbox Games with Gold subscribers are getting four titles for free this June—two for Xbox 360 players and all four for the Xbox One gamers courtesy of the Xbox ne Backward Compatibility support.

Microsoft picked an interesting lineup of gratis titles for the month of June as they all scream fun, wacky and out of this world.

Xbox Games with Gold members of the current-gen console are getting "Goat Simulator," which will be available for download for free via Xbox Games with Gold for the whole month of June.

The game is usually priced at $9.99, but since it is one of the Xbox Games with Gold free games for June 2016, fans who have always wanted to know the feeling of being goat will no longer come at a literal cost.

The next Xbox Games with Gold freebie for June 2016 is "The Crew," an online racing game that takes players around a huge map of United States and into the life of criminal-turned-spy Alex Taylor.

Usually priced at $29.99, "The Crew" will be available for download from June 16 to July 15. The game boasts amazing details and action, which is why it is a big steal for Xbox Games with Gold users.

For Xbox 360-rocking folks, the first half of June will be all about "Super Meat Boy," a $14.99 platform game that follows Meat Boy in his bid to save his girlfriend Bandage Girl from evil scientist Dr. Fetus.

For the latter half of June, Xbox Games with Gold presents subscribers with the Xbox 360 with "XCOM: Enemy Unknown," a turn-based tactical video game usually priced at $39.99.

The game centers on a global alien invasion and players take the role of an XCOM (Extraterrestrial Combat Unit) leading fighters to fend off the unwanted and unfriendly guests.

The June free titles mark the third year of Xbox One Games with Gold.
