Like every week, Microsoft is making Xbox games playable for free for a weekend for Xbox Game Pass Core and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. This week, Microsoft is offering us a somewhat special selection, since 9 games from the Warhammer universe are being highlighted as part of the Warhammer Skulls event which begins today.
We find there in particular Blood Bowl 3, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 or even Necromunda: Hunderhive wars to name a few. Most of the games are available now, and playable until Monday, May 27 at 8:59 a.m. Paris time.

Remember that the extensions Shadowkeep, Beyond the Light And The Witch Queen of Destiny 2 are also still available for free to all Xbox members from May 7 to June 4. (Xbox Game Pass Core and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate not required).
As usual, if you decide to continue the experience, your progress will be preserved and promotions on the Microsoft Store apply to the different titles.
Necromunda: Underhive Wars
In the dizzying depths of the hive cities of Necromunda, rival gangs of the Underhive wage a bloody struggle for power, fortune, survival, and the honor of their House. Here, only the strongest survive.
Order, customize, and grow your gang of Esher, Goliath, or Orlock. Specialize each member and send them to fight in tactical gunfights in the heart of the dystopian mazes of the Underhive. Exploit the environment to surprise your opponent, collect equipment from defeated enemies, unlock new skills, and take on other gangs in merciless online battles for up to 4 players.

Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus
Take command of the Imperium's most advanced army, the Adeptus Mechanicus, in this critically acclaimed turn-based tactical game.

Tread carefully: the fate of the Imperium depends on it.
Blood Bowl 3
Put on your crampons, put on your helmet, adjust your shoulder pads and your breastplate… and slip (discreetly) a sharp dagger into your belt.
Be Ruthless, Not Brainless – Lead a team from 12 available factions, each with their unique characteristics, and hinder your opponents' progress by cleverly placing your players. Ruthlessly dodge or eliminate those who stand in your way and reach the end zone to score decisive touchdowns! The finest strategists will naturally have an advantage, but who knows? An out-of-control troll could devour a teammate and change the course of the match.
Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr Ultimate Edition
You are an Inquisitor, the most powerful agent in the Imperium. In this Action-RPG developed by the creators of The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing, investigate the Martyr fortress-monastery and purge the Chaos that haunts its walls.
