Crackdown 3 is finally about to come out, with its February 15 release for Xbox One and PC looming. But if you can’t wait until then, you can play a different (and older) Crackdown experience right now on your Xbox One — for free.

Microsoft is making the original Crackdown available for download for free. It’s a digital Xbox 360 game, but you can download it and play it on an Xbox One thanks to backward compatibility.
