Xbox Adds Two New Free-To-Play Games to Download Now (No Game Pass)
Two very different free-to-play games have just expanded Xbox’s library, and both are available to download now without requiring an Xbox Game Pass subscription. If you’re looking for mech-heavy PvP battles on one side, or an RPG-style grind with endless-feeling progression on the other, this August drop has you covered.
Background
Xbox players can add these titles directly to their library under a free-to-play model. While both include optional in-game purchases—typical for the genre—the core game content is accessible without buying the games upfront or relying on a timed promotion.
What’s available right now on Xbox
-
War Robots is now available on Xbox after building a large mobile following. The developers cite more than 325 million accumulated players, highlighting how big the audience was prior to the console release.
-
Incremental Epic Hero 2 also launched on Xbox, offering a completely different experience: an incremental RPG where progression and continuous growth are the focus.
Details on both free downloads
-
War Robots
The game centers on PvP battles featuring giant combat robots. Players can configure and customize their mechs, equip them with different gear, and coordinate with teammates to take advantage of each machine’s strengths. The Xbox version is designed to adapt controls and performance for console while keeping the foundation that drove the original’s success.
-
Incremental Epic Hero 2
This title shifts to fantasy incremental RPG play. You control six different heroes, develop their abilities, and keep unlocking new options as you move through its world. The developers say the game includes enough content for over 1,000 hours, positioning it as a long-term progression game rather than a short campaign.
Both games are free to download from the Xbox Store, and both can be started immediately from your console.
