Enjoy Free Play Days: MLB The Show 25, Polterguys: Possession Party, RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition, and Blasphemous

—

So, summer hit us hard, right? And what’s better than to hide away with some solid gaming time during Free Play Days. I stumbled upon this event, and guess what? RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition’s free to play for Xbox Game Pass folks. Guess it starts on a Thursday, July 10 and, uh, stops on Sunday, July 13. I can almost hear the screams from the virtual coasters.

Oh, and there’s more on the list. MLB The Show 25 and Polterguys: Possession Party—both free for all Xbox players. No need to be a Game Pass guru to jump on these. I mean, free baseball and ghostly mayhem? Sounds like a weekend, right?

Heads up, though. Blasphemous has a 2-hour trial for everyone. Enough time to dip your toes into the weirdness of Cvstodia. Not that I’m counting.

### How to Dive In

Okay, so, here’s the thing. You hunt down the games on Xbox.com—or just roll with the Xbox app if you’re lazy like me. Click around, and bam, you’re on the Microsoft Store. Must be logged in, obviously. On your console, just hit the Subscriptions tab, then scroll into the Free Play Days section. Totally foolproof. For once.

### Keeping the Party Alive

Buying the games after trying—or getting messy in them—is not a terrible idea. Discounts are a thing. Though I can’t promise you won’t have to click around to spot deals. But hey, your achievements stay with you! Unless it’s somehow region-locked, then… well, you get it.

### Free Play Days, Game Pass Style

So, for the Game Pass crew, it’s a good time. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3? Yep. Control your rollercoaster kingdom your way. Do the sandbox thing, or just get rich in career mode. I got dizzy just thinking about it. Here’s a bonkers surprise—25% off during Free Play Days.

### Free For All

Polterguys: Possession Party is this chaotic ghost game where you annoy each other with sneaky tricks to avoid getting snagged by some monster. 8 players trying to out-spook? Sounds exhausting in the best way.

MLB The Show 25—it’s like living out your baseball dreams, from a nobody in school to Hall of Fame greatness. Go make some friends in fan-favorite modes. Or just play alone, your call.

Blasphemous? Now, this game—set in a cursed land—has you slicing through nightmares. Souls-like Metroidvania—say that ten times fast.

So, plenty to chew on, huh? Don’t sleep on these. Or maybe do, but at least leave the console running.
