Xbox Live Gold subscribers and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members are getting four free games in August thanks to Xbox Games with Gold.

Players can pick up the first of the month’s free games on Aug. 1 with Portal Knights, a third-person action RPG, and MX Unleashed, a classic Xbox dirt bike game with the most mid-2000s soundtrack of all time. Later on in the month, on Aug. 16, players will be able to pick up the giant robot battle game, Override: Mech City Brawl and Red Faction 2, a fantastic and underappreciated Xbox-era first-person shooter about taking down a corrupt government using really big guns.

Here’s a full look at the games coming to Games with Gold in August:

  • Portal Knights ($19.99 ERP): Available August 1 to 31 on Xbox One
  • Override: Mech City Brawl ($29.99 ERP): Available August 16 to September 15 on Xbox One
  • MX Unleashed ($14.99 ERP): Available August 1 to 15 on Xbox One & Xbox 360
  • Red Faction II ($14.99 ERP): Available August 16 to 31 on Xbox One & Xbox 360

Some of the Games with Gold titles form July are still available for players who want them, including WRC 8 FIA World Rally Championship, which leaves the service on July 31, and the two-on-two basketball game Dunk Lords which will stick around until Aug. 15.
