If you own an Xbox One and you haven’t picked up Sunset Overdrive yet, you’re missing out on one of the most fun games of 2014, but don’t run to GameStop quite yet. To celebrate the first year of Xbox One, Microsoft is giving away Sunset Overdrive this weekend. The catch? You’ll only have access to the game for 24 hours.

DON’T MISS: Our Sunset Overdrive review

Starting this Saturday, November 22nd at 12:01 a.m. ET, anyone with an Xbox Live Gold subscription will be able to download the entirety of Sunset Overdrive free of charge. That means that you can blast through the campaign, play a few rounds of the game’s multiplayer Chaos Squad mode and possibly even fit lunch in at some point on Saturday afternoon.

On November 23rd at 12:01 p.m. ET, the 24 hour free trial will come to a close. Any progress you made or achievements you unlocked will be saved in case you decide to buy the game at a later date and continue your adventure through Sunset City.

Don’t forget, this is just one of many perks that Xbox One owners will be treated to during the anniversary celebration. Microsoft is also giving away a bunch of digital goodies to everyone who bought an Xbox One before November 11th.
