Xbox Live Games With Gold September 2016: Forza Horizon, Mirror’s Edge, and more

Four new games are heading into the Games With Gold program for Xbox Live in September.

Microsoft is giving people who subscribe to the Xbox Live Gold program, which costs $60 annually, access to some smaller Xbox One games and some big-name Xbox 360 classics. These games will hit the service throughout the month of September, so you’ll have to keep checking back into the Xbox Store if you want to get ’em all. Gaming is a $99.6 billion business, and consoles represent a significant chunk of that. Microsoft is attempting to keep a hold on a corner of that revenue with its Xbox Live Gold subscription fees by offering up these bonus games as part of that membership. This keeps players engaged in the service and willing to renew their payment in the product to keep access to that library, which they lose when their Gold membership lapses.
