Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown Review

Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown is a thoughtful and ambitious take on the franchise. Its strengths lie in its narrative, its management systems and its willingness to let players shape their own story. However, uneven combat, technical issues and a reliance on RNG prevent it from fully realising its potential. The post Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown Review appeared first on TheXboxHub.

Feature: With 2025's GOTY Now In The Library, Xbox Game Pass Premium Is Becoming Too Good To Ignore

A serious value for Xbox players.When Xbox Game Pass Premium was first introduced back in October, we didn't know how the service would hold up long-term. Yes, at the time we declared it a great value (largely thanks to Microsoft's new commitment to put its own games in the library within a year), but we still weren't sure how the tier would sit within Microsoft's new XGP lineup. Well, six months in and Xbox Game Pass Premium has surpassed our expectations so far, and some of this month's additi

Well, Microsoft hasn't confirmed anything just yet, but based on some games that were added to the service this time last year, we can at least make a few predictions ahead of time.We know that a lot of Xbox users want more advance notice of games leaving Xbox Game Pass, but Microsoft usually gives us around two weeks right now - and don't forget, publishers sometimes secure late deals with Microsoft to keep their games on Game Pa

"What's happening?".There's been a lot of talk about Xbox backwards compatibility in 2026 already, especially since Xbox teased some kind of revival for the program at GDC a few weeks ago, but at the moment, we have no idea what we'll be getting. Will it be brand-new additions for console? The arrival of Xbox backwards compatibility for PC?
