Microsoft will no longer give away free games through Games with Gold. In the US, Canada and other parts of the world, the company announced the change in an email. The company says that they have reached the limit of their ability to bring games to the catalog. Games with Gold will continue to include exciting Xbox One titles.

The email states that if you continue to subscribe to Xbox Live Gold, you will be able to download any titles you claimed through Games with Gold. Microsoft did not reply right away.

In response to the success of the PS Plus service, Microsoft added Games with Gold to Xbox Live Gold. The perk was extended to include the xbox one. The lure of the bonus waned with the introduction of the game pass. It felt like Microsoft was about to change the service after they dropped the requirement to play free-to-play games. There is an email from Microsoft.
