by Rainier on Nov. 22, 2017 @ 11:43 a.m. PST

Xbox One is Microsoft's all-in-one gaming and entertainment system that puts you at the center of all your games, TV, movies, music, sports and Skype.

It’s time to welcome the holidays with a new collection of games coming to Games with Gold this December. Starting with the fantastical co-op first-person shooter Warhammer: End Times – Vermintide, followed by another great Telltale adventure game as we rejoin Marty and Doc on a new time-traveling escapade in Back to the Future: The Game – 30th Anniversary Edition.

On Xbox 360, and Xbox One through Backward Compatibility is the rhythm-action game Child of Eden created by Tetsuya Mizuguchi (best known for the classic Rez), then later in December is the pulp-inspired action game Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death to dish some hack-n-slash adventure.

All games will be available for a limited time as part of Games with Gold, so get Xbox Live Gold today to ensure you get your hands on these and any future Games with Gold games as an Xbox Live Gold member.
