It’s been a while since I last covered the games I’ve been playing on the Xbox’s subscription service – and there’s been an awful lot added in the last few […]
It’s been a pretty eventful couple of weeks for Microsoft’s subscription service, with the company’s Bethesda deal finally being approved by the EU – which has resulted in 20 of […]
I’ve been keen to get my hands on Pecaminosa, an extremely intriguing, very promising noir game, for some time. With a beautifully implemented pixel art style and a superb, era […]
Following on from the recent news that Sea of Thieves is moving away from its monthly updates to a three-monthly ‘Seasons’ structure, further details have now been announced. Perhaps the […]
Since it was launched in 2018, Sea of Thieves has seen regular content updates on a mostly monthly basis – all for free (though of course premium cosmetic items have […]
I picked up my Xbox One X in late 2019, having sat out Microsoft’s console for much of the generation thanks to its absolutely disastrous launch reveal and all of […]
Minecraft is a genuine phenomenon; since the paid alpha released in 2009 – before the first full release in November 2011 – the game has sold 200 million copies and […]

Just a few hours ago, Xbox social media accounts – led by Head of Xbox, Phil Spencer – dropped an absolute bombshell, just 24 hours (or less, in some regions) prior to the opening of pre-orders for the next gen Xbox consoles. Microsoft have acquired ZeniMax Media, owner of Bethesda Softworks – a company which itself is made up of […]
