Overwatch 2Įven though Blizzard has improved the onramp for new players this time around, Overwatch 2 still has a steep learning curve. Originally a timed PlayStation exclusive, Deathloop landed on Xbox in September 2022. Each time period and area rewards repeat exploration, with secret guns, hidden conversations with NPCs and lots of world-building lore to discover for yourself. It’s through this that you’re able to customize your playstyle or equip yourself in the best way to survive Julianna and nail that assassination. )Īs you play through the areas again (and again) you’ll equip yourself with slabs that add supernatural powers, as well as more potent weapons and trinkets to embed into both guns and yourself. You play as Julianna, hunting down Colt and foiling his plans for murder.
(The online multiplayer is also addictive, flipping the roles around. She’ll also lock you out of escaping an area, and generally interfere with your plans to escape the time loop. While you try to figure out your escape from this time anomaly, you’ll also be hunted down by Julianna, another island resident who, like you, is able to remember everything that happens in each loop. Colt must “break the loop” by efficiently murdering seven main characters, who are inconveniently are never in the same place at the same time. If you last until the end of the day, you still repeat it again. If you die, then you go back to the morning, to repeat the day again. Deathloopĭeathloop, from the studio that brought you the Dishonored series, is easy enough to explain: You’re trapped in a day that repeats itself. Oh, and while we understand some may have an aversion to subscription services, it’s definitely worth considering Game Pass Ultimate, which will allow you to play many of the games on this list for a monthly fee. We’ve done our best to explain the benefits Microsoft’s systems bring to the table where appropriate. This list then, is a mixture of games exclusive to Microsoft’s consoles and cross-platform showstoppers that play best on Xbox. It’s with that frame of mind that we approach this list: What games would we recommend to someone picking up an Xbox today - whether it’s a Series X, a Series S, One X or One S - after an extended break from Microsoft’s consoles? But while next-gen exclusives may be few and far between, with PS4 outselling Xbox One by a reported two-to-one, there are a lot of gamers who simply haven’t experienced much of what Microsoft has had to offer since the mid ‘10s. That makes it difficult to maintain meaningfully different lists for its various consoles - at least for now. Someone with a 7-year old Xbox One has access to an almost-identical library of games as the owner of a brand-new Xbox Series X.
