The weekend is on the horizon, which means it’s time for another Free Play Days event! Microsoft has confirmed the free Xbox games that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Standard, and Core members can play until Sunday, February 2, are Alan Wake 2, Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream, and The Survivalists.Xbox Free Play Days games (January 30 to February 2)Alan Wake 2Sword Art Online: Fractured DaydreamThe SurvivalistsIt doesn’t happen often, but none of these games are already included in the Game Pass library. Unfortunately, it looks like Alan Wake 2 is a time-limited trial (we’re not sure of the exact length yet, but it’s likely only a couple of hours), so you won’t be able to blast through the entire game over the weekend. As for the Sword Art Online: Fractured Day Dream and The Survivalists, it doesn’t look like there’s a time limit on these titles. Here’s a rundown of this weekend’s Free Play Days games: Alan Wake 2The excellent Alan Wake 2 has you return to the picturesque town of Bright Falls as FBI agent Saga Anders to investigate a string of grisly murders. As the case spirals into a nightmare, Alan Wake, who is still trapped in a world beyond our own, writes a dark and sinister story in an attempt to change the reality around him and escape the reality in which he is trapped. If you’re yet to play Alan Wake 2, it’s definitely worth checking out the survival horror game this weekend. If you’re new to the series, it’s probably worth purchasing Alan Wake 2 during the Xbox Lunar New Year Sale as you get the first game, Alan Wake Remastered for free. It appears that the Alan Wake 2 free trial will be limited to just a few hours. Sword Art Online: Fractured DaydreamSword Art Online: Fractured Dream is an online co-op action game where you enter a distorted version of the Sword Art Online world. After picking from over 20 SAO characters, you will team up with up to 20 players and work together to take on challenging bosses and restore the system of Galaxia.As for the achievements, unfortunately, we can’t give you a proper completion estimate as we don’t have enough data. However, it looks like the 1,000G will take well over 150 hours, so completionists may want to bear that in mind if starting Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream over the weekend. The SurvivalistsThe Survivalists offers an adventure-filled sandbox set in The Escapists universe. Stranded on a desert island that’s filled with surprises (and danger), you will need to explore, build, craft, and train monkeys if you want to survive. The Survivalists features a procedurally generated world with a variety of biomes, so each adventure will be unique. Will you be checking out any of this weekend’s Free Play Days games? Let us know down in the comments. If you’re an Ultimate subscriber, make sure you claim January 2025’s Game Pass Ultimate Perks — some are about to expire!
