Defense Grid 2, Peggle among April Xbox Games with Gold

It’s that time again when Microsoft announces its next lot of Xbox One and Xbox 360 Games with Gold titles. Don’t get too excited, because unlike last month’s fantastic selection, May looks to be a little dull.

First up is the sci-fi-based tower defence game on Xbox One, Defence Grid 2. It’s an upgrade from its predecessor with new upgrades, units, and a host of features. This title will be available for the whole month of May.

Next on the big, black console is Costume Quest 2, which you can download from 16 May until 15 June. This cutesy RPG adventure has you traversing  through a Halloween-esque world in search of adorable quests.

For the Xbox 360 titles, there is the ever-popular and vastly over-marketed Peggle, as well as racing title GRID 2. For anyone that hasn’t played Peggle (is that possible?) you have to destroy bricks to get points… there’s not a lot to it. Of course, GRID 2 allows you to race around tracks to your heart’s content.

Peggle will be available from 1-15 May, and GRID 2 from 16- 31 May.

As always, you’ll need to be a Xbox Gold subscriber to take advantage of these titles.
