TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 165 looks towards the gaming releases on Xbox for June, but that’s not all. The Fable rumours stir up a discussion about the upcoming Xbox Showcase and a cavalcade of new games are on the agenda in regards to what the team have been playing, including The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. So, be sure to tune in and give it a listen.
This week's episode sees Gareth, James, Paul and William get together as they kick things off with a quick catch-up. From fishing and working hard, to witnessing the end of great TV shows like Barry and Succession, it’s a real mixture. But then attention turns to games, games, and more games.
The quartet have been spending their free time playing a variety of games lately and share their honest opinions on them. Expect to get insight on the excellent The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, humorous point-and-click adventure Lucy Dreaming, the abstract world of After Us, hardcore drifting courtesy of DRIFTCE, the appalling Boss Rush Mythology, unorthodox fighting in Verdict Guilty, and 2D side-scrolling action of Eastern Exorcist.
Following that, they delve into the upcoming titles such as Diablo IV, Park Beyond, Street Fighter 6, Layers of Fear, and others. And finally, the Xbox Showcase predictions come to the forefront amidst rumours of Fable potentially being shown in some capacity.
