The self-proclaimed dream team of Gareth, Paul and Richard are present for TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 142, with all sorts on the agenda this week. Expect to hear about the downfall of Stadia and the future plans of CD Projekt Red, as well as a whole load of opinions on new games including JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R and The Diofield Chronicle. So, please settle down and enjoy our musings.
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.
We've already had the chance to expand the awesome Immortals Fenyx Rising world with A New God DLC, and the Myths of the Eastern Realm managed to whisk us off to further pastures new. Now though Immortals is taken on a different track, one that moves the game into a top-down experience with a new Champion, some additional brawler-style combat and a super exciting new mythological adventure.
Resident Evil Village is due to release on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS5, PS4 and PC come May 7th 2021, and there will be a new competitive multiplayer element included - Re:Verse. Capcom released an open beta ahead of time, and so I jumped in to see if this add-on is likely to fare any better than their previous attempt.
It was only a week ago that Akapura Games pushed out The Darkside Detective to Xbox players, but already it's time to get involved in a second adventure as The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark launches on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC and Stadia.
Borderlands was massive. Borderlands 2 was bigger. But with Borderlands 3 Gearbox Software raised the bar once more. Today though they are picking up that bar and throwing it out the window with the arrival of the Borderlands 3: Directors Cut and no less than four further DLC packs focusing on the Multiverse Disciples.
With a stupidly strong narrative pushing it along, some glorious visuals that immerse the player fully, and some utterly unique gameplay, it's with great pleasure that we finally find Lost Words: Beyond the Page launching on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC.
Monster Energy Supercross - The Official Videogame 4 is the latest in their catalogue to receive such treatment, with a new 2Stroke Bike Pack (250) bringing the excitement.
Destiny, Borderlands, The Division. What all of these games have in common is that they are excellent entries in the looter-shooter genre, and now many other developers want a slice of their pie. The latest challengers to the throne are Square Enix and People Can Fly (of Bulletstorm fame), with Outriders, out today on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, Google Stadia and PC. Oh, and it’s on Game Pass!
When Big Sugar and 2 Ton Studios released Unto The End to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC back in December, the sheer difficulty of the combat found many giving up with the intriguing story. Now though the game has been updated, and alongside some assistance to the combat, a variety of gameplay tweaks and bug fixes, is the option to run through the game without ever needing to kill a thing.
When Gods Will Fall launched back in January, few could have imagined that it would switch up the roguelike genre like it did. But honestly, the brutal world that it provided became one that we couldn't ignore. Now though comes the first DLC pack for the game, and whilst it doesn't change too much about the core gameplay, the Gods Will Fall Hunter's Head Gear pack is well worth considering.
If you can remember back to the 1990s, you'll no doubt have found memories of the platformers of the day. The decade was full of them and it is Kaze and the Wild Masks which has found inspiration from the best to deliver an old-school platforming experience, whilst mixing in modern ideas, to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, Stadia and PC.
Are you ready to live a hero's life, fighting for justice as you go? You'll want to get involved with Zorro The Chronicles, The Game when it comes to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, Stadia and PC.
Anyone who has ever taken in a Life is Strange episode will know all about the narrative, the mystery, the magic and the protagonists. Now though the next chapter in the franchise has been detailed and dated, alongside that of a Remastered Collection. Wanna know more about Life is Strange: True Colors and the Life is Strange Remastered Collection?
Are you ready to face Hell's demons in all-new locations? Are you up for the fight against some of the most deadly variants to ever crawl? Are you ready for DOOM Eternal's The Ancient Gods - Part Two!
It's pretty safe to say that Watch Dogs: Legion has had a bit of a rocky time. Whilst obviously nowhere near as fractured as CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077, when Watch Dogs: Legion was pushed out to console and PC at the back end of 2020, it didn't all go as planned. But credit to Ubisoft for continuing to allow the game to evolve and with the arrival of the new Online Mode, Legion may well find a place in the hearts of many.
As is customary around the midpoint of the Supercross season, the accompanying video game releases. If you are one of those that has bought the Special Edition then today is the day you start your three-day early access of Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame 4 on Xbox, PlayStation, PC, Switch and Google Stadia.
