November 2020 Xbox Games with Gold Free Games Predictions

Xbox One Game – Forza Horizon 3

Xbox Games with Gold Predictions

It’s almost that time for Microsoft to announce what free games will be included on Xbox Games with Gold for the upcoming month of November 2020.

With the Xbox Series X also releasing next month on Nov. 10, Microsoft will have a lot of its plate and will likely want to offer an Xbox One game with stunning 4K visuals so next-gen owners can have a free game to test out the hardware.

That’s why we predict an entry from the Xbox One X Enhanced Games List, and from that list Forza Horizon 3 is looking like the most likely pick.

This is for several reasons, firstly numerous entries in the Forza series prior to the Forza Horizon 3 have already been offered on Games with Gold including:

• Forza Horizon in September 2016
• Forza Motorsport 5 in September 2017
• Forza Horizon 2 Standard – 10th Anniversary Edition in August 2018
• Forza Motorsport 6 in August 2019

It’s also often offered for free to play for certain weekends in the past specifically on Xbox consoles, meaning Microsoft is more likely to offer Forza Horizon 3 for free on Games with Gold in the future.

Forza Horizon 3 also has 4K Ultra HD and HDR visuals, so it would look great on Xbox Ones, Xbox One Xs, and the new Xbox Series X as well.

But the most compelling reason is Forza Horizon 3 has been delisted from the Microsoft store as of last a couple weeks ago, and history has taught us this makes a game way more likely to be offered on Games with Gold either right before or after it does off the platform.

For example, both Forza Motorsport 6 and Forza Horizon 2 were offered for free before being delisted in the past in September 2019 and September 2018 respectively after going on Games with Gold.

Therefore, Forza Horizon 3 is looking like an extremely promising pick for the Xbox One included game for Games with Gold in November 2020.

Xbox 360 Game – Ratatouille

Xbox Games with Gold Predictions

Next up we have a pick for a possible Xbox 360 game inclusion, and while it might seem funny there’s a decent chance the Xbox 360 Ratatouille game could make it onto Games with Gold.

Microsoft has a history of including Xbox 360 Disney games on Games with Gold, especially in the last few years as the number of Xbox 360 games starts to dwindle. This includes:

• Brave: The Video Game in April 2018
• Cars 2: The Video Game in April 2018
• Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two in August 2018
• Meet the Robinsons in July 2019
• Disney’s Bolt in October 2019
• Toy Story 3 in December 2019, and much more

Ratatouille has reached meme-like fame, especially recently with tons of videos on social media app Tik Tok being centered around a love for Remy the Rat.

It’s also worth considering that it’s likely Microsoft might announce plans to no longer offer Xbox 360 titles on Games with Gold moving forward.

It wasn’t too long ago Sony announced PS3 and PS Vita games would no longer be offered on PS Plus, and with next-gen starting next month it’s looking more and more likely Xbox 360 owners might be dropped from the Games with Gold program altogether.

June, July, and August 2020 all didn’t include any Xbox 360 games on their Games with Gold lineups, so it appears Microsoft might slowly be weaning those older titles off of the program quietly.

Make sure to check back with Twinfinite in the next week or so for the offical announcement from Microsoft for what free games are offered on Xbox Games with Gold for November 2020.
