Nobody's Really Heard Of It, But This Is One Of My Xbox Games Of The Year For 2025

A hidden gem.When we asked you to vote on your Pure Xbox Game of the Year a couple of weeks ago, the game that received the least votes out of everything was Despelote (with two). That's not a reflection of the game itself, but rather that not many people have come across it — on the Xbox Store, for example, it doesn't even have enough scores to generate an average rating, although every single review on there is five out of five stars.So, what if I told you that Despelote is not only in my top

Poll: How Many Xbox Games Have You Actually Bought In 2025?

A few? A dozen? How about over 50?!It's been an amazing year for top-quality games in 2025, with multiple Game of the Year candidates releasing on Xbox over the past 12 months, but there's only so much money and spare time to go around — we can't go buying all of them!Xbox Game Pass is always a big factor in this as well, with many of those GOTY contenders such as Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, DOOM: The Dark Ages and Hollow Knight: Silksong all releasing day one on the service earlier this year.R

To be developed by Toys for Bob.It's been rumoured for almost two years now that developer Toys for Bob might be working on a new Spyro game, especially since the company entered into a formal agreement for Xbox to publish its next title.Back in March of 2024, YouTuber 'Canadian Guy Eh' claimed that Spyro 4 was in development, and now their latest video mentions how a former senior concept artist at Activision was working on both "Call of Duty" and "Spyro" at some point between August 2022 and M

S. Prysm Destroyer Review

S. Prysm Destroyer only has a sheepish answer to the question of ‘why should run-and-gunner fans play this game?’. It’s got some quirky PS1 graphics and wasp-woman butts. That wasn’t enough for us, and it’s probably not for you, either. We like a little more substance to our shooters, even at a budget price. The post S.

It's taken over the old May 2026 window from Rockstar Games.We've been eagerly awaiting the release of 007 First Light on Xbox next year, so we're a little saddened (but not too surprised) to hear it's been pushed back slightly from March to May of 2026.Specifically, 007 First Light will now launch on May 27th, 2026. This is one day after the date that was set for GTA 6 until Rockstar Games pushed their game to November recently, freeing up some extra development time for the folks at IO Interac

Opinion: This Xbox Game Studios Gem Is My Game Of The Year For 2025

Midnight delight.There are some fantastic candidates for Xbox GOTY this year, as is typically the case by the time the end of December draws near. Clair Obscur is bringing in the plaudits en masse, Split Fiction is up there with the best that 2025 has to offer, and DOOM: The Dark Ages is a devilishly awesome effort from Bethesda as well. But, having mentioned all of those, my 2025 game of the year comes straight from Xbox Game Studios - as I just can't get South of Midnight out of my head.You se
