Things may have calmed down in the gaming world in the last seven days, but there’s still much to discuss. We’ve got opinions on some of the latest games to hit the Xbox, thoughts on the recent Final Fantasy news, a bit of Fall Guys, and even a quiz to put everyone’s knowledge to the test. So, have a listen to TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 129 and enjoy it!

This week’s episode starts off with Gareth, James, Richard, and Paul having a catch up by sharing what they’ve been up to lately. There’s all sorts on the agenda with Netflix’s Web of Make Believe series, Amazon’s The Boys, and a health update from Paul, being just a few of the highlights.

The team then turns their attention to the cavalcade of games they’ve been indulging in. Expect a real variety with visual novel racing in Nirvana Pilot Yume, the supernatural goings on of The Quarry, some zombie survival action delivered by Deadcraft, and the OlliOlli World VOID Raiders DLC. There’s even more, as they have opinions on Urban Flow, Winter Ember, and Fall Guys too.

While news is a bit sparse, you can still hear about Final Fantasy announcements, the size of Gotham Knights, and where the focus of developers DICE is nowadays. And then it’s time for an exciting quiz, hosted by Gareth, which is sure to entertain at the very least.
