The offer is free of charge, unlike some competitions that attempt to raise money (sometimes for charity) by making players pay to enter.

However, it is no secret that in 2021, Xbox Games with Gold struggled to please its loyal subscribers. While there have been months of Games with Gold that received a positive reception, most games offered throughout the year were niche games that were barely familiar to most players.

However, if Microsoft is truly committed to turning things around, the only thing it should do is offer more popular games to its subscribers. Here is a wish list of Free Games with Gold for September 2021 that could continue the positive trend set by August....

The most famous example is, of course, The Big Show. The seven-foot Superstar was billed at 500 lbs for much of his WWE career before losing over 100 lbs as part of his drastic transformation in 2016-17. In contrast, some WWE Superstars have been encouraged to gain weight in the early stages of their careers, including the likes of CM Punk and Street Profits member Montez Ford. Now that WWE is no longer considered to be “The Land of the Giants”, Superstars of all shapes and sizes have achieved success over the last couple of decades in WWE – from Rey Mysterio and Daniel Bryan to larger Superstars like Goldberg and Brock Lesnar....
