Forza Horizon 2 is the 10th anniversary edition, with over 200 exotic cars to select as you take to southern France and northern Italy to explore the scenic vistas and get your need for speed on. It’s a gorgeous racer that’s still got a lot to offer. If brawling is more up your alley, opt to check out For Honor, which is the standard edition. Take control of your favorite classes of warriors, including Knights, Vikings, and Samurai, and decimate the competition.

Reaching back further into the horror catalogue, we have Dead Space 3, which was an intriguing entry in the Dead Space saga, but if that’s too scary, you can always head into the world of Disney with Epic Mickey: The Power of Two.

Forza Horizon 2 is available from August 1 to August 31, while For Honor hits August 16 and will be available through September 15. Meanwhile, Dead Space 3 is available from August 1 through August 15 and Epic Mickey from August 16 through August 31. Interested in picking the games up? Just make sure you have a valid Xbox Live Gold membership.
