Battlefield 1 is the star of Xbox Games with Gold in November

With the end of October upon us, it's time to look forward to all the free games coming up in November through Xbox Live Games With Gold and PlayStation Plus. You Xbox One owners are actually in for a treat in November, as Battlefield 1 will be headlining the free games on offer. Its appearance on Games With Gold likely isn't a coincidence, as Battlefield 5 is set to release on November 20.

While it's safe to assume that most FPS fans have already played Battlefield 1 at this point – the game has been available for more than two years – this is a good opportunity to check out what is a great multiplayer shooter if you missed out. Battlefield 1 will be available for the entire month, running from November 1 to November 30.

Xbox One owners will also get a download of Race the Sun on the house. Race the Sun is a pretty tense arcade-style game that tasks you with constantly keeping your solar-powered vehicle in the light as you speed across a landscape packed with obstacles. If you're looking for a challenging title you can pick up and play, Race the Sun is definitely worth a download when it goes live on November 16.

On the Xbox 360 side of things, we'll see free copies of the Dante's Inferno and the original Assassin's Creed. If playing through Assassin's Creed Odyssey has you in the mood to revisit where the series all began, this is a good opportunity to do so without having to track down a used copy.

Assassin's Creed will be live on Games With Gold from November 1 to November 15, while Dante's Inferno will be available during the second half of the month from November 16 to November 30. As is usually the case, both Xbox 360 games will be compatible with Xbox One, so if you're an Xbox One owner with an active Gold subscription, you've got four games to look forward to next month. What do you think of November's batch of games? Head down to the comments section and let us know!
