Microsoft has announced that all upcoming Games With Gold free games for Xbox 360 will be available for Xbox One with backwards compatibility. Technically this means that Xbox Live Gold members will have access to four free games every month if they have an Xbox One.
Xbox One backwards compatibility—the ability for the console to play last-gen games—was announced a few months ago. It will be rolling out in November of this year. Along with Microsoft Studio games, these third-party publishers will also support backwards compatibility (list courtesy of Polygon):
