Xbox Games With Gold for May: Giana Sisters, Lego Star Wars

It's a lean but still solid month for Xbox Live Gold users.

Microsoft has announced its Xbox Games With Gold titles for May 2017. The line-up might not be as blockbuster-packed as previous months, there are some good offerings to be had.

For Xbox One, there is Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams – Director’s Cut, an indie platformer that’s surprisingly fun. It’s available from May 1st to 31st. Then there’s Lara Croft and The Temple of Osiris, an isometric action adventure title that supports co-op and features everyone’s favourite Tomb Raider. It’s out on May 16th and will be available till June 15th.

Xbox 360 users get Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 on May 1st to 15th and Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga from May 16th to 31st. At least the latter has a number of good Lego games to play through. Thanks to backwards compatibility, Xbox One users effectively get four free games a month as opposed to two.
