Ah 2023. The year of every game under the sun. The twelve months in which pretty much every single game previously announced is due to release. 2023 is getting better still though, especially if you're a younger gamer, as Gigantosaurus: Dino Kart has been revealed. Â
Whilst the Pumps N’ Hoses DLC may sound like something coming to Saints Row, it’s in fact a very innocent expansion to the cult classic that is Farming Simulator 22. Get your mind out of that gutter.
In a collaboration perhaps not many people saw coming, one of Britain’s finest supercar manufacturers is launching onto the PUBG battlefield today. That’s right, McLaren are making their mark on the world of PUBG, as part of Update 19.2 coming to consoles today
Another week and TheXboxHub's A-Team get together to chat over the latest news and reviews from the world of gaming. We may be focused on the Xbox life, but you'll find us dipping into that of PlayStation, Switch, PC and more too. Episode 139 of TheXboxHub Official Podcast does just that - with focus on the latest Ubisoft Forward showcase, along with the Disney and Marvel events.
Get ready, because here comes one of the most intriguing games of the year. Watch Dogs: Legion launches for the Xbox One, PS4, Stadia and PC, and it is bringing all of its grandma gameplay with it.

In just a few short weeks the wonderful world of Valhalla will be ripe for exploration when Ubisoft release Assassin's Creed Valhalla onto Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5 and PC. If past history of the franchise is anything to go by, it'll ensure many an hour or immersive adventuring lay ahead. Today though Ubisoft are already thinking to the future and with two major expansions already planned for the game - plus a ton of free content in between - Valhalla promises to go above and beyond anything you have already seen.
Golf. A sometimes staid and serious sport that refuses to ever let the fun out. And when 2K dropped PGA Tour 2K21 to console and PC earlier in the year, that serious side came to the fore. Now though Halloween is just around the corner and it is with that where the funky fun side comes out, with a host of new gear becoming available. Pumpkin head, anyone?
With Microsoft's pending acquisition of Bethesda Softworks, the future of the latter's IPs remains in limbo. Will new entries to games like Doom, Fallout and The Elder Scrolls come out exclusively on the Series X|S and PC? Only time will tell, but for now, it seems rather likely. In the meantime, players on Xbox One, PS4, PC and Stadia can purchase and download The Ancient Gods - Part One of the highly-anticipated DLC for Doom Eternal.
Ubisoft have a long and storied history, with some of the biggest gaming franchises in the world coming our of their development offices: Far Cry, Assassin's Creed, Watch Dogs. But even though they know how to deal with the serious triple A games that the community adore, every now and then they come up with some leftfield options. Family Feud on Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch and Google Stadia looks to be one of those.
This is what we’re talking about! We’ve had a fair few local party games on Xbox One over the past months, but none of them understand fun as much as Cake Bash. When you’ve got the lockdown blues and the colour is ebbing away, boot up Cake Bash and thwack your loved ones over the head with a lollipop! Cake Bash launches today on Xbox One, PS4, Switch, Stadia and PC via Steam.
It’s never nice to deliver news regarding delays, but sometimes it’s unavoidable and today Modus Games have announced that the upcoming JRPG Cris Tales won’t hit the original 17th November release date. Instead we’ll have to wait until 2021!
When you get together the developers of Gears of War: Judgment and Bulletstorm, and mix them with those behind Sleeping Dogs and Just Cause, it's safe to say there is a lot of hype. That is the case with Square Enix's next blockbuster - OUTRIDERS - as the release date is confirmed alongside details of cross-play and the next-gen upgrades.
It's been over a year since Warner Bros and NetherRealm Studios carried the fight onwards with release of Mortal Kombat 11. But that doesn't mean they are done yet and as we fast move into the next generation of gaming, Mortal Kombat will continue to be relevant with not just free upgrades taking place for those heading to Xbox Series X|S and PS5, but a whole new Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate coming along for the ride.
It's the game we're all holding out for, and in just a few weeks Watch Dogs: Legion will have released on Xbox One, PS4, Google Stadia and PC, with the Xbox Series X|S and PS5 launches fast following. But before that time we've got a new Story trailer to take in and confirmed details of Ubisoft's post-launch plans.
We're big fans of what GUNNAR Optiks create, with the launch of their recent Lightning Bolt 360 changing the game in the glasses field. Now though the leaders in the blue light blocking market are back, collaborating with the world's largest esports company - ESL - to launch the ESL Blade to the world.
Overcooked! set things out for starters and Brunch Club followed up with the main course. Now though Cake Bash is going all in with the dessert as the sweetest four-player party title yet has got itself a fully confirmed release date on Xbox One, PS4, PC and Google Stadia. And you really won't have to wait too long to experience the taste for yourself.
Rock of Ages has allowed players to smash, bash, crash and roll their way through multiple stages over the years, with great humour and fun accompanying every tale. And even though the launch of Rock of Ages 3 back in July failed to see the series hit new heights, those at Modus Games are seemingly intent on pushing it on further. Free DLC is a great way of doing that.
