Xbox fans are ecstatic with any big console release but it looks like there are becoming more fans tuning into Microsoft’s Xbox gaming division than potentially ever before. That’s at least what the consensus is according to Phil Spencer, the head of Xbox. For some, this is not a big surprise with Microsoft making some big changes to the Xbox brand after the Xbox One generation. We very well could see Microsoft taking the lead throughout this generation after the company had their most viewed E3 media event ever. Phil

When it comes to the state of video games right now, Microsoft is doing something really interesting. It was unveiled long before the latest platforms hit the marketplace, but Microsoft gave players a service called Xbox Game Pass. This was a service that would grant players access to all of their exclusive video games for a monthly fee. Of course, at the time the Microsoft Xbox brand wasn’t doing as well in quite a few player’s eyes as its competitor, Sony. Now things have changed up and more players are

AMD’s supersampling tech FidelityFX Super Resolution (or FSR) is launching later this month, on June 22, and ahead of that, it seems a new report has spilled the beans on what sort of support we can expect to see for it in the immediate future.

When FSR launches on June 22, it will

After a couple of fairly lackluster E3 presentations, the Microsoft and Bethesda livestream felt like a much-needed breath of fresh air. There was no shortage of exciting game announcements and updates, and we even got to see a few Xbox exclusives mixed up in there as well. Here’s a list of every Xbox exclusive game announced at E3 2021. Do note that this list only contains Xbox console exclusives that were announced during the presentation, so games like Halo and Twelve Minutes won’t be included.

Its first person fantasy RPG Avowed was absent but the developer addressed the same. On Xbox Wire, it said that the team is “hard at work making something we’re sure fans of our games and the Pillars of Eternity universe are going to love. “While we are not showing anything right now, we are looking forward to showing off what we have been

After it was rumored to be announced E3 2021, Obsidian Entertainment announced that The Outer Worlds 2 is in development. Of course, it’s important to note that no actual gameplay was shown. The trailer actually satirizes the fact that nothing is ready, from the main character to the actual mechanics. Check it out for yourself below. Unlike the previous game, The Outer Worlds 2 will be exclusive to PC and Xbox Series X/S (which makes sense given that Microsoft owns the studio and publishing rights for the title). It will

Today Funcom released a new trailer of its open-world survival game Conan Exiles focusing on the visuals on Xbox. To be more precise, the trailer gives an overview of the optimization done for Xbox Series X & S. On top of that, we see a comparison with the game on Xbox One, which really isn’t too flattering for Microsoft’s older console. The optimizations include 4K resolution, volumetric lighting and fog, improved water, increased draw distance for foliage and grass, higher texture quality, higher view distance quality, increased shadow rendering distance,
