TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 168: despelote Interview and Final Fantasy XVI

-

Best of 2025

On the back of multiple specials covering the latest gaming presentations, TheXboxHub team go back to basics, focusing on the latest games in Episode 168 of TheXboxHub Official Podcast. This time around it’s an exclusive despelote interview and some Final Fantasy XVI thoughts that come to the fore.

Join TheXboxHub’s finest as they get together for an hour’s chat, talking over the biggest news and games to have come out of the scene in recent times.

Gareth, James, Darren and Richard team up to cover an exclusive interview with the creators behind the highly anticipated despelote; a game fully rooted in Ecuadorian culture. They also chat about their time with Final Fantasy XVI on PlayStation 5 – who said we were single format gamers?

Games, games, games!

From there, there’s coverage of multiple more games.

Puzzle Quest 3 gets a runout, as does Crime Boss: Rockay City. There’s the scares of Layers of Fear (2023) and Amnesia: The Bunker too, along with thoughts surrounding the rather brilliant Burnhouse Lane. 

With an Xbox price hike covered, a brief – very brief, we’re bored of it now – look at the latest in the whole Microsoft/Activision saga and more, if you’re in the need of an hour’s time killing, you could do worse than kick back with Episode 168 of TheXboxHub Official Podcast.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
