You can get FREE Xbox 'telepathic adventure' game right now – how to claim Tell Me Why

XBOX and Windows PC owners can claim a free “telepathic adventure” game this month.

You don’t need to pay a penny, and it doesn’t require Xbox Game Pass or Xbox Gold membership.

The game is called Tell Me Why, and it’s up for grabs between June 1 and 30.

But although the window to claim it only lasts a month, you’ll be able to keep the game and play it beyond the end of June.

It’s published by Xbox Game Studios, and is the first AAA video game to feature a transgender person as a main playable character.

To celebrate the Pride Month, the game is being given away totally free of charge.

The game follows a pair of twins called Tyler and Alyson Roman.

They have a supernatural ability to communicate with each other telepathetically.

They reunite after 10 years in their rural Alaskan hometown, where they attempt to learn the truth behind their mother’s death.

Part of the story involves the twins having different memories of key moments in their childhoods.

Tell Me Why is actually a fairly recent game, announced in late 2019 and released in August 2020.

It’s split into three chapters, the third of which came out on September 10 last year.

The game received generally positive reviews at launch, earning a 78/100 score on Metacritic.

And it won a number of awards, including Game for Impact at The Game Awards.

It was also nominated for Game Beyond Entertainment at the BAFTA Game Awards.

The game – developed by Dontnod Entertainment – normally costs £14.99, but is currently listed as free on the Xbox Store.
