News: Those who bought the Xbox One Sunset Overdrive bundle might want to check your messages to see if Microsoft is giving you a free game.

Sunset Overdrive was released earlier this week on Xbox One along with the white Xbox One bundle. For those who picked up that console bundle Microsoft might have a nice surprise for you. There are reports popping up around the internet that Microsoft is messaging random Xbox One gamers with a code to download Ryse: Son of Rome for free. Not everyone is getting a code though and the only qualification appears to be that you picked up the Xbox One Sunset Overdrive bundle.

”Ryse:

In case you aren’t familiar with Sunset Overdrive the premise is below:

“Sunset Overdrive is set in the fictional American metropolis Sunset City. The story begins when a resident mega-corporation, Fizzco, hosts a massive release party for its hot new energy drink: Overcharge Delirium XT.

But...the beverage was rushed to market. Profit first! Most of Sunset City is transformed into an array of various mutants, also called the “OD’d”. The city is quarantined and morphs into a chaotic, mutant-infested Awesomepocalypse. Soon, you realize a life of playing videogames, watching action movies, and reading comic books has given you the tools to become the hero Sunset City desperately needs.”
