Details on an Xbox One version of the Games With Gold programme may be coming soon, according to Microsoft's Phil Spencer.

The Microsoft Game Studios corporate vice president was asked on Twitter when players could expect Games With Gold to make its way to the Xbox One, to which he responded: "Answer to this will be coming fairly soon."

Originally conceived as a limited-time promotion, before becoming a permanent service, Games with Gold offers Xbox Live Gold subscribers two free games each month. Titles downloaded via the promotion remain in that user's library permanently, and will not be deactivated if players unsubscribe from the Gold service.

The most recent titles confirmed for the initiative are Dead Island and Toy Soldiers: Cold War, which are the two free games to be given away in February.

Dead Island is currently free until February 15, then Toy Soldiers: Cold War replaces it on February 16 until the end of the month.

Microsoft first confirmed in November 2013 that Games With Gold would be coming to Xbox One.
