Microsoft has revealed the free games coming to the Xbox Games with Gold program during January.
According to Xbox Wire, Killer Instinct: Season 1 Ultra Edition will be free on Xbox One to all month long and Zheros will be free to download for Xbox One from January 16 to February 15.
Xbox 360 owners will be able to download DiRT Showdown the first half of January, after which it will be replaced by Deus Ex: Human Revolution for the last half of the month.
Xbox One owners can also download the free offerings for Xbox 360 since all future Xbox 360 games will be backwards compatible with Xbox One.
Killer Instinct's Season 1 Ultra Edition grants access to all eight Season One characters, as well as a playable version of the 1994 arcade game Killer Instinct Classic.
Meanwhile, Zheros is a side-scrolling action shooter, featuring sci-fi cartoony characters. The game also has local co-op play.
You still have time to grab the available free games for December, including The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing and Thief on Xbox One and Sacred 3 and Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising on Xbox 360.
