Xbox Series X News

There are seven - seven! - games leaving Game Pass today, and only one in return. Which hardly seems fair.

Gotham Knights, the game that everyone wanted to slam until they actually realised it was pretty good, has today been enhanced - with some new game modes that allow both 2- and 4-players to hit the mean streets of Gotham together. 

Focusing on those who fought in World War II, you may expect Until the Last Plane to centralise on the brave pilots who risked their lives soaring through the skies. But you'd be wrong, as this one puts you in charge of the airfields with which they will land. It promises to be no less exciting though. 

If you're an Xbox player, then you'll very soon be able to download a couple of new games for zero cost. Perfect for a cold winter's night, no!?

Rebellion don't need a reason to continue building out the content found in Sniper Elite 5, but when they do have a reason, they go to town. Today, just as they look to celebrate their 30th anniversary, it's that Rebellion team which is providing Sniper Elite 5 players with access to new free and paid content. 

If you're looking for a new football tale to keep you busy into the wee small hours of the night, then it's perfect timing for the kick off of Soccer Story, as PanicBarn and No More Robots help us create our own narratives away from the World Cup. 

Just what the hell is going on in EDENGATE on Xbox? Well, we don't know, but we would hazard a guess that it will take you right to The Edge of Life. 

If there hasn’t been enough football on the telly over the past couple of weeks, perhaps Sir or Madam would be interested in some Soccer Story? 

Need for Speed is one of the most recognisable, most loved of all racing franchises. It's a series which has been able to provide us with some of the greatest moments in our gaming lives and now, with the release of Need for Speed Unbound, it's time to prove we have what it takes to survive in the cutthroat racing scene once again. 

Available to purchase, download and play right now, no matter whether you're on Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S, Speedgunner Ultra mixes those two gaming genres together; two genres that we're not sure ever needed mixing. 

Black Friday is over (pretty much), Cyber Monday has ended but the holidays are coming - and with that you'll want to fill your digital Xbox library up with some new games. That's something you can do on the cheap thanks to the Xbox Deals With Gold Sale for November 29th - December 5th 2022.

The foundation of Slime Rancher 2 is incredibly solid, so as long as future content continues to expand and introduce new content, then it’ll shape up to be an extremely fun game.

By rights, December should have no new Xbox games of note. It’s the end of the year: who has any disposable cash? We’re grateful that a few studios have said pooh-pooh and released games anyway. Absolute mad lads.

House Flipper was one of the surprise releases of 2020, but since that time it's continued to gather up some acclaim and a bit of a cult status. If you're one of those who loved what it delivered, allowing for players to flip houses into home, then you're going to love the addition of the Luxury DLC, as it drops onto Xbox and PlayStation. 

We never fail to be amused by the sheer number of simulators that are available in the gaming world. The latest is certainly one of interest too, as Animal Shelter Simulator comes to Xbox.
