Xbox Live Games With Gold Free Games For October 2015, November List Not Yet Revealed

Oct 19, 2015 06:02 PM EDT

When it comes to the Xbox Live Games with Gold, the subscribers are desperately awaiting the free games that come out every month.  The free games for October 2015 were announced in the last week of September, and many of these games expired in the middle of October.  Now Games with Gold subscribers are looking into predictions for November 2015, and the word on them has been little with predictions aplenty. 

Much of what can be predicted for November 2015 is exactly what is reported on Ecumenical News, that "nothing much has surfaced as yet".  Most of the time, the free game predictions begin to fly to eventually end up getting revealed before the end of the month. 

Some of the games in October bleed over into the first half of November.  For example, The Walking Dead Season One (an appropriate game for the month of October) will be available on the Xbox One from October 16th until November 15th.  For those that have the Xbox 360, the same game will be available from October 16 to the 31st

The Walking Dead: The Complete First Season is an episodic interactive drama graphic adventure that was released by Telltale games.  It takes place in the same fictional world of the graphic novel of the same name (not the television show, which differs in some ways), and has five "episodes".  The game is good at character development, and putting the player in the same scenario as its comic-book source material, and matching its grim, monochromatic tone with very little use of color. 

Xbox One Live Gold members can also download Valiant Hearts: The Great War until October 31st.  According to the Steam Store, Valiant Hearts: The Great War is "the story of 4 crossed destinies and a broken love in a world torn apart".  It is a 2D animated comic book adventure that mixes exploration, action, and puzzles in a World War I setting rich with atmosphere.  The player is actually playing four characters with Emile, and they are German son-in-law Karl, American soldier Freddie, and a Belgian nurse named Anna. 

One can usually predict some kind of horror-related game to be released as a free game in October due to the Halloween season, but as for November, would it be befitting to have some Thanksgiving-related theme?  If so, what games fall into that category?  If it helps, last year's free Games with Gold for November were Volgarr the Viking, Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, and Red Faction: Guerilla.  It would be safe to say that if you want definite answers as to what Free Games are available for Games with Gold in November 2015, wait until the last week of October, which is next week, at this time of writing.
