Microsoft is making multiplayer and Minecraft: Xbox One Edition free between May 18-21

Microsoft is unlocking multiplayer on Xbox Live this weekend. The company will be hosting a Multiplayer All Access event between May 18-21 which allows players to game with one another as much as they want. For 4 days only, you can play with friends and gamers worldwide for free on both Xbox One and Xbox 360. For even more fun, play Minecraft: Xbox One Edition for free on Xbox One for a limited time. So, what are you waiting for? Boot up your console, tag your friends, and get gaming!

Microsoft regularly hosts free multiplayer events so that gamers can test out the Xbox Live service. Hopefully many will choose to buy a subscription once they get a taste for online gaming. There isn’t a better game to test this with unlike Minecraft. The title allows you to do whatever you want and it’s a lot of fun. Not only that, but it’s supremely addictive because there’s just something so satisfying about creating a thriving city out of nothing. Creativity is at the center of gaming and Minecraft allows everyone to express themselves in unique ways.
