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.
