February's free games on Xbox Live revealed

Xbox One owners are getting brand new sports game #IDARB free this month, while 360 owners are getting Sniper Elite V2 and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons.

#IDARB, or It Draws A Red Box, is released this month on Xbox One and to celebrate, the developers are giving it away free.

A chaotic eight-player eSport-jumping-jetpack-future-arena-ball game (bit of a tongue twister!), the game was born from the developer posting a tweet asking what should be done with the red box. Complete with a character creator, and a stadium-worth of characters to choose from, made entirely from suggestions tweeted at the developers, it's worth checking out.

You have until the 15th of February to download Brothers, with the last game on the list, Sniper Elite V2, becoming available for the rest of the month after that.

Brothers offers a unique play style which sees you control two different characters at the same time using your two control sticks, boasting an intruiging narrative, this is a fun little puzzle-platformer to pick up for free.

Sniper Elite V2 is just what it says, the second offering in the - so far at least - trilogy.

Your task: crawling, sneaking and sniping your way through the battlefields of World War 2 in a bid to foil the Nazi plans. An incredibly realistic shooting engine that takes into account wind, distance and real-life factors that a sniper must consider is backed up with each kill rendered in glorious x-ray and slow motion.

A must play in our eyes!

All three games are worth a look, and as usual, will remain free as long as you maintain your Xbox Live Gold membership, even if you delete the game from your hard drive.
