April's Xbox Live Games with Gold line-up feels like a particularly good one.

Next month's freebies include beautiful first-person puzzle game The Witness on Xbox One and the brilliantly creepy Dead Space 2 for Xbox 360 (also backwards compatible).

There's also Assassin's Creed Syndicate, the cor blimey London guv'nor entry set in Victorian times. By my ranking of the series, it's the best Assassin's Creed not to feature Ezio, pirates or Egypt.

Finally, there's a Disney Pixar tie-in for the kids - the game of Cars 2.

April's #GamesWithGold starts the month off with The Witness and Cars 2: The Video Game https://t.co/9aoWM0DTfm pic.twitter.com/xOlQ4Se8AS — Larry Hryb (@majornelson) March 28, 2018

Obviously, it's only free if you subscribe to Xbox Live Gold - but if you have an Xbox you probably do.
