Thanks to Xbox's Backward Compatibility feature, players on the Xbox One can also download and play "Darksiders" and "Assassin's Creed: Revelations." However, only Xbox Live Gold subscribers have access to these free games.

As for the rest of March, subscribers can still play "Layers of Fear" and "Heavy Weapon" until the end of the month. "Evolve Ultimate Edition," which was made available on March 16, will still be available until April 15.

April is definitely shaping up to be an exciting month for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. The four games have all received critical acclaim and offer different forms of gameplay. "Ryse: Son of Rome" is more immersive and features a third-person action-adventure story that centers on the Roman soldier Marius Titus. "The Walking Dead: Season 2," on the other hand, places the player in a post-apocalyptic world riddled with zombies. 

Meanwhile, "Darksiders" is an action-RPG game that focuses on War as he battles his way through angels and demons who believe that War is the reason for the Earth's end. Finally, "Assassin's Creed: Revelations" follows Ezio as he searches for the secrets to becoming a master assassin.
