Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is the latest game from Dark Souls studio From Software. It launched on Friday, March 22, on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Normally $60, if you’re in the market for an Xbox One, you can get Sekiro for free right now. For a limited time, Newegg is including a free copy of Sekiro with a number of Xbox One consoles and bundles.

It’s a wicked good deal, especially when you consider that some of the consoles on Newegg already come with recently released games, too. In Sekiro, you play as a one-armed shinobi during Japan’s Sengoku period. Unlike Dark Souls and Bloodborne, the protagonist Wolf has fast movement speed and combat revolves around perfectly timed deflections and parries. If you like your action games brutally difficult, Sekiro is right up your alley.

The fate of physical game discs seems to be set in stone, with an all-digital library becoming increasingly inevitable. Microsoft, though, may at least give Xbox owners a way to bring their shelves full of physical games along for the journey.

A leaked Microsoft roadmap sent to game publishers details the planned rollout of Xbox’s Disc-to-Digital program alongside a much larger backwards-compatibility push. The document reportedly targets August for general availability, October for the full launch of original Xbox games on PC, and a gradual Xbox 360 rollout beginning in 2027.
