• Episode 262 | "DOOM and Gloom"

  Where there's DOOM, there's probably some gloom, right? This is an Xbox-focused show after all, so let's dig into all the news of the week in the XboxEra Podcast Episode 262!DOOM: The Dark Ages reviews have gone live, and safe to say, iD Software have cooked! Nick, Jesse and myself have all been playing it, and now that we're free of embargos, we dive into some spoiler-free discussion about everything the Slayer brings to the table this time around. The long rumoured ASUS/Xbox partnered handheld device had some images leak thanks to the FCC, and well, it's the ROG Ally 2 alright. We talk a little about what to expect and what we like and don't like about this curious looking device. And lastly, GTA6 had a second trailer drop out of nowhere, and oh my are we impressed.Beyond that, we talk a little about Console Wars The Card Game and our upcoming retail launch, discuss Revenge of the Savage Planet and talk a lot about Gears of War: Reloaded. Oh, and Giant Bomb go independent, which is just lovely, lovely news.As always, everything XboxEra does is only made possible by our incredible Patreon Community, and we would love you to be a part of it!

• Episode 261 | "They Cancelled WHAT?!" feat. Rand Al Thor19

  With Jon being out for this weekend (and thank god, five hours?!) the legendary Rand Al Thor19 joins Nick and Jesse to talk through all the carnage of this week in the XboxEra Podcast Episode 261!Beyond talking through the lastest games, the podcast crew sit down and chat about all of the latest in news from across the industry. GTA6 has been delayed into May of next year, games media takes another blow with the decimation of Polygon and the PG-13 Fandom restrictions placed on Giant Bomb. EA lay-off a bunch of developers, and according to popular rumour, cancel a potential Titanfall game....but maybe that's okay, because it was another extraction shooter. Ubisoft tease a Prince of Persia Lost Crown follow-up, and Microsoft raise prices on hardware and software.It basically all kind of sucks, and the crew spend a whopping five hours talking about as well as taking questions from our amazing Patreon Community.

Blue Prince released as the highest rated game of the year (on Game Pass no less!), and I can finally talk a little about how obsessive I've been with the game.South of Midnight is now out for everyone on Xbox Game Pass, and what a treat it is too.

Bungie also lift the lid on Marathon, coming September 2025 on Xbox, PS5 and PC. Lastly, Console Wars The Card Game is finally arriving into backers hands, as all copies have shipped out from the UK to folks in Europe and well, everywhere except for the USA, Canada and Mexico.
