Welcome to Next Week on Xbox! Okay, so honestly, this is your heads-up for all the new Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox PC, and Game Pass goodies dropping soon. Got some deets below. Click the game profile thingies for more info if you’re curious (dates might shift — don’t blame me). Okay, let’s dive in.
System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster
Coming June 26 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
Alright, so Nightdive Studios is dishing out a glossy upgrade of this FPS/RPG gem. It’s 2114, and you’re waking up on a ship called Von Braun. There’s this rogue AI named SHODAN who’s pretty much reigning in chaos mode. Mutants? Check. Killer robots? Double check. No idea how they make those robot sounds so eerie, like something’s about to jump out, you know?
Rust Console Edition S|X
Coming June 26 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
Welcome to Rust. This game’s got one aim: don’t die. You need to eat, drink, and not freeze. I mean, start a fire, get shelter, hunt. Oh, and beware of other players. Survival of the fittest kind of deal. Pretty gnarly.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate
Coming June 24 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
Grab some pals, pick your fav Turtle, and go save Master Splinter from the foot clan! Rogue-like escapades and all. If turtles could talk, they’d probably say something wise right now, but they’re ninjas, so what do I know? Xbox fans, snag it by July 8, 2025, and score the Casey Jones DLC freebie.
Stasis
Coming June 26 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
A point-and-click adventure, drenched in sci-fi horror. It’s isometric, whatever that means. You get this retro vibe storyline. Items, puzzles, and computers, oh my! Gritty, spooky feels — like a creaking ship in a storm. Brr.
I Am Your Beast
Coming June 25 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
Hunt down the military-industrial complex. It’s stylish, comic book vibes in these mini-sandbox worlds. Your fast-paced revenge mission — it’s like a pulp fiction thriller, but kinda with guns and bad attitudes.
Bee Flowers: Save the Garden
Coming June 24 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
Guide bees through jaw-droppingly pretty landscapes, linking paths. It’s simple, but it kinda hooks you, you know? Hexagonal grids to pollen up those flowers. It ramps up into some intense challenges, though. The bees seem tiny but mighty.
How 2 Escape: Lost Submarine
Coming June 24 – Optimized for Xbox Series X|S
This co-op puzzle venture drags you into a deep-sea quest. Find a lost submarine, stop a war — no pressure, right? Logic skills required. But you’ve got a buddy? Go prevent chaos.
Okay, so stay tuned; this week’s Xbox lineup is bursting with quirks and surprises. Keep your controllers close and enjoy the chaos. Game on, adventurers!
