Good surprise for Xbox players. In March 2026, Xbox is making three completely free downloads available, accessible immediately and without requiring an Xbox Game Pass subscription. An initiative that contrasts with the usual offers often reserved for subscribers.
This content is available to users of Xbox Series
Crimson Desert, Sea of Thieves and Towerborne at the heart of the new features
Behind these free downloads, we find three new dynamic funds. These visual elements allow you to transform the console’s home interface by giving it a lively and personalized atmosphere. The first is directly inspired by Crimson Desert, an open world game by Pearl Abyss. Recently released, it quickly established itself as one of the most commented titles of the moment. His world is now accessible from the console’s home screen.
Two other dynamic funds complete the offering:
- Sea of Thieves, already well known to players
- Towerborne, Xbox’s in-house production
These animated visuals are integrated directly into the interface and give a new dimension to the user experience.
How to download this free content on Xbox
Recovering these dynamic funds does not require any complex manipulation. Everything is done directly from the console settings.
Just follow this path:
- Settings
- General
- Personalization
- My background
- Dynamic backgrounds
Once in this section, new content appears alongside old content. All that remains is to select the one that matches your style.
Customization that has become essential on Xbox
For several years, Xbox has been increasing the options for customizing its consoles. Dynamic backgrounds are among the most popular features, because they allow you to renew the visual experience without affecting performance. Major games have already been entitled to their own animated universe, such as Halo, Forza or even Starfield. The arrival of new themes linked to Crimson Desert confirms this strategy: each important release can now be displayed directly on the home screen. Free, simple to install and varied, this content is a discreet but effective way to rediscover your console on a daily basis.
