The "leaked" photo going around with an alleged list containing Microsoft's Xbox One Games with Gold line up for August has been confirmed to be a fake.

Head of the Microsoft Xbox division Phil Spencer debunked the lineup rumors last July 21 when he tweeted back a fan who asked about a certain screenshot floating around the internet.

The screenshot revealed that games such as "Ryse: Son of Rome Legendary Edition" and "SlashDash" will be free for Xbox One Gold members, while "Catherine" and "Fallout: New Vegas" will be free for Xbox 360 Gold members.

Spencer dispelled the rumors as he tweeted back with "Yea, that screenshot isn't real."

According to XBOX Achievements, the fake screenshot games are too good to be included in the lineup for Games with Gold as the Legendary Edition of "Ryse: Son of Rome" would mean that Xbox One users will be able to receive downloadable content for free in addition to the game being an Xbox One Launch Title. The website also argued that "SlashDash" was just recently launched last July 17.

There is still no word yet from Microsoft about the Xbox Games with Gold lineup for August.

In other Xbox One news, Spencer confirmed via Twitter that the company will be adding mouse and keyboard support for Xbox One. Business Insider reported that the addition of these two supports would let the console handle a wider array of videogames that would let players benefit from the precision of mouse controls and keyboard. The outlet added that the addition of a mouse and keyboard would be a lot cheaper compared to a real Windows personal computer, but with better gaming graphics.

According to IGN, there will be four upcoming titles to be released for Xbox One this month. This includes "Never Alone: Foxtales," a puzzle game by Upper One Games; "King's Quest: A Knight to Remember," an adventure game by Sierra; "So Many Me," a puzzle and action game; and "Magic Duels: Origins," a card game published by Wizards of the Coast.

As for Xbox 360, players can expect to have the console version of following notable games this year: "Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain," by Konami; "Madden NFL 16," by Electronic Arts; "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5," by Activision; "Just Dance 2016" by Ubisoft; "Call of Duty: Black Ops III X," by Activision; and "Rise of the Tomb Raider," by Microsoft.
