I've heard many say that the PlayStation Plus line-ups have been better than Games with Gold lately, so it's understandable that people have felt the now confirmed price increase for Live Gold is extremely poorly timed. Now we might know how Microsoft plans to justify it, however.

Because the Games with Gold for February have been announced and the line-up will increase from four to five games, as two fantastic games will be free the entire month:


Gears 5 the entire month
Resident Evil HD Remaster the entire month
Dandara: Trials of Fear Edition from February 16 - March 15
Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb from February 1 -15
Lost Planet 2 from February 16 - 28


What do you think about the selection and is this be enough to justify a more expensive Live Gold membership? It definitely makes Xbox Game Pass Ultimate an even better deal.
