Every week, Xbox Game Pass subscribers are set to receive new bonuses that they can enjoy. For Elder Scrolls fans, the newest newbie could be the one you're waiting for. Of course, you need to have an Xbox console to get the most out of it.
Whether you're a subscriber or not, here's how you can take advantage of this limited-time offer and dive into some fantastic games.

Every weekend, Xbox Game Pass Core and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers enjoy the perks of Free Play Days. This special event offers unlimited game trials, allowing you to explore as much of a game as you want within the designated time frame.
It's an excellent way for gamers to try out new titles without committing to a purchase right away. And if you find a game you love, Xbox often provides deep discounts during this period, making it easier to add the game to your collection at a reduced price.
The Elder Scrolls Online: A Special Freebie for All Xbox Players
This weekend is particularly noteworthy because Xbox is extending a special offer to all players, not just subscribers. The highlight of this week's Free Play Days is The Elder Scrolls Online, a massively popular online role-playing game, according to The Sun.
Normally, this game requires a Game Pass subscription to play due to its online features, but from Thursday, Aug. 8 until Monday, Aug. 19, it's available for free to everyone.
This 10-day trial period is an excellent opportunity for those who have been curious about the game but haven't yet committed to a subscription.
If you decide you want to continue your adventure in the world of Tamriel after the trial, you can purchase The Elder Scrolls Online for the discounted price of $5.99/£4.49-a steal compared to its usual cost.
Additional Free Play Days Offers for Game Pass Subscribers
While The Elder Scrolls Online is available to all players, Xbox Game Pass Core and Ultimate subscribers have access to even more games this weekend.
First up is Bassmaster Fishing, a realistic fishing simulator that usually retails for $39.99/£29.99. During Free Play Days, subscribers can purchase it for just $7.99/£5.99. This game offers a relaxing and immersive experience for those who enjoy the great outdoors, albeit virtually.
Another title on offer is Make Way, an indie multiplayer racing game known for its chaotic and fun gameplay. Regularly priced at $14.99/£12.99, it's on sale for $8.99/£7.79 during the event. This game is perfect for those who love fast-paced, unpredictable racing action.
How to Make the Most of Free Play Days
Free Play Days are an excellent opportunity to try out new games without any commitment. Whether you're a casual gamer or a hardcore fan, these limited-time offers allow you to explore a variety of genres and titles. If you find a game you enjoy, make sure to take advantage of the discounts and purchase it before the weekend ends.
Both Bassmaster Fishing and Make Way are available for unlimited trial from Thursday, Aug.8 until Sunday, Aug. 11, according to Gaming Bible. However, remember that the discounted prices are only valid while Free Play Days are active. So, if you're interested in adding these games to your library, act fast and make your purchase before the weekend wraps up.
