As part of its apology for attempting to increase the pricing for Xbox Live Gold memberships earlier this year, Microsoft has begun unlocking online multiplayer for an extensive list of free-to-play games. The list includes popular battle royale titles such as Respawn Entertainment’s Apex Legends and Activision’s Call of Duty: Warzone, as well as other blockbusters such as Bungie’s Destiny 2. Microsoft may have blunted the necessity of Xbox Live Gold with this decision, but the paid subscription service still offers some great perks such as free games and exclusive discounts.
