Xbox Series X News

This morning, rumors began to swirl around the brand new Fable game being developed by Playground Games. The rumor is that because of an inability to work with the current engine, the development team has had to scale back the quality of the game. Rumors are just that, rumors. But it does highlight one major problem with the video game industry - the announcement of games too early.

There are a handful of games I am looking forward to in 2022, but number one on my list might shock a few people. Seeing as I hold Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle in my top 5 Switch games of all of time, you would expect that, should it launch this year, Spark of Hope will be my number one! Nope, it's actually a simulation game called Two Point Campus, and it's something I cannot wait for!

Rumours are that new higher-tier consoles will be released next year. The PS5 Pro and Xbox Series X-2 will offer up a higher graphical fidelity and no doubt other bells and whistles too. But what’s the point where there aren’t any games? Neither console has got to the point where it deserves an upgrade. It’s as simple as that. The PS Pro and One X were desperately needed. 4K televisions had become more popular. Graphics had increased, but processing power…

A new Justice League game has been announced by Outright Games today. Check out the teaser trailer below. Not much is known about DC Justice League yet. The teaser trailer doesn’t give much away. It looks like the Justice League characters will be more cartoon-like with big heads in the game and the game is supposed to be an action/adventure. Outright Games is known for smaller budget games with big properties, they did a Transformers game and have an upcoming…

Final Fantasy XV has finally tipped over 10m copies sold. At an almost eerily similar time, Grand Theft Auto V was revealed to have sold 165m copies. This is an insane discrepancy. Final Fantasy XV was a really successful game. It was a benchmark title discussed and rediscussed endlessly since the day it was released, for better or for worse. It was torn apart, criticized, enjoyed, built up – it had spin-offs and tie-ins. And it sold 155m less copies…

Warner Bros will soon have its own free-to-play Smash Bros. type of game. Check out the cinematic trailer for MultiVersus below. MultiVersus is a free-to-play Smash Bros like game. It will star Bugs Bunny, Batman, Scooby Doo characters, Superman, Iron Giant, and many more. There will be an Alpha test this month and a beta test summer. Its really amazing that it took Warner Bros this long to do a game like this. Warner has such a huge library of…

Ubisoft has announced today that its Ubisoft+ Classics service will come to PlayStation Plus’s extra and premium tiers when it launches over the next couple of months. This is fantastic news for fans of all things Sony. But will the service be coming to Xbox? It’s a fair question considering there have been rumours that the service would be coming to Microsoft’s Game Pass service for nearly a year now. Here’s what we know, and here’s what we expect to…

Okay. This is an official written warning. Yes, there are Silent Hill rumours again. No, I’m not going to bloody write about them. Enough is enough. Done. Period! Long-time GamesReviews readers will know that over the last decade, I have written some 4,000 articles about Silent Hill returning. Mostly about whatever insider has seen absolute definitive proof that the next game is coming. God, imagine the emotional rollercoaster if you were a fan. I am not a fan, and I…

Sometimes a series of events is so poor you have to hold your head in your hands. The Starfield delay, and what it means for Xbox, is one of those times. After years of fighting off accusations of having a thin first party line-up, this is what happens. How does it get to the point where the only major game you have officially coming in 2022 is Deathloop, a game that was released last year on PlayStation? Granted, more could…

Console wars are for kids. Subscription wars are for the discerning adults, and with a brand new (although not really) PlayStation subscription service on the horizon, things are going to start heating up. Further evidence of this has come to the reaction to Sony CFO Hiroki Totoki’s comments that their investment into AAA games would need to drop if they were to put them onto a subscription service day one. First of all, I’ll get to the actual comment in…
