Join a Team, Become A Rally Hero


To take full advantage of this incredible environment, we’ve created our most thrilling race routes in Forza Horizon history with the largest number of racing events featured in any Horizon expansion.

These events are brought together in our exciting new Campaign mode where you’ll get to join three rally teams and embark on timed Horizon Rally stages and multi-car Horizon Races. In these modes, compete across dirt, asphalt and challenging night-time scenarios to prove your mastery of all facets of rally driving.

Rally drivers should also pay close attention to the new Horizon Rally HUD, which includes helpful on-screen information like a mini leaderboard, pace notes and position changes that can be toggled on or off.

We’re also expanding our roster of EventLab props with a selection of new objects including branded barriers, flags and civilian vehicles, allowing you to build new races which capture the look and feel of a Horizon Rally event! These will be available for all Forza Horizon 5 players, regardless of whether they own the new expansion.

A Fox, a Sword and a Shield: the Only Ingredients you Need to Become a Hero

Do you have what it takes to become the world’s next hero? In Rise of Fox Hero, all you need is a trusty sword and shield combo!

A colorful and fun journey through 32 different platforming levels, featuring beautiful environments and soundtrack. This game by solo developer Josep Monzonís is not the first title under his belt; however, it represents his first entry into the 3D game genre, after almost 13 years developing many 2D titles.

desert exterior

In his own words, his passion resides in “playing and creating fun and addictive games” and with this most recent shift into 3D games, it’s safe to say there’s an entire new set of possibilities to explore and bring to life! To him, game development is a work of craftsmanship, and he loves being deeply involved in all aspects of development in order to give the final product a very personal touch. Although Josep has partnered with 2Awesome Studio as a publisher before, up until this day seeing his games released on consoles is still one of the highlights of his journey and the feeling of excitement never gets old!

Although Rise of Fox Hero is a platformer at its core, Josep also wanted to incorporate combat and puzzle elements to create a more exciting experience for players that fully takes advantage of the three-dimensional POV. In the game, perspective is key, and you will find yourself needing to make use of the fully rotatable camera to really get a good glimpse of all the different angles and corners, as well as solving all the different puzzles.

Challenging yourself and experimenting with new forms of game development can be a scary, yet exciting, experience so I hope you decide to give this game a try and take the role of an adorable fox on its way to herodom. Have fun!

No Man’s Sky: Fractal Update is available today

Hello,

We’re excited to let you know that today we are releasing our first major update of 2023. We’re calling it Fractal (version 4.1).

The Fractal update introduces the chance to earn a stunning and exclusive new starship, the Utopia Speeder, which allows travellers to skim across planet surfaces at high velocity.

We’re also launching a new Expedition, Utopia, which challenges players to work together and rebuild an abandoned solar system for the mysterious Utopia Foundation. All is not as it seems, and an expedition-exclusive new crafting mechanic will require players to think about exploration, construction and survival in a whole new way. Other expedition rewards include the exclusive new Fearsome Visor helmet, a robotic drone companion, and much more.

No Mans Sky Fractal screenshot

Exploration-minded players also have a new tool-the brand new Wonders Catalogue. This shows off your most incredible discoveries, from tallest mountain to strangest creature. This detailed record of your journey not only allows you to easily compare records with fellow travellers, but gives explorers new goals as they set out to find and document the universe’s most unusual sights.

The options menu has also been totally reworked, introducing a raft of new accessibility features and giving players even more control over the way they play and experience the game. What’s more, these new system features and controls are joined by even more in-game quality of life changes and improvements.

No Mans Sky Fractal screenshot

2022 was a pretty packed year for No Man’s Sky with major free updates like Sentinel, Outlaws, Leviathan, Endurance, and Waypoint, plus a whole suite of expeditions. We’ve got an even bigger year planned for 2023, with Fractal marking just the starting point.

Thanks again so much for your continued support. It means a lot to us.

No Man’s Sky comes complete with all 21 major updates up to and including Waypoint, our 4.0 update.

Inspired by the adventure and imagination that we love from classic science-fiction, No Man’s Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with unique planets and lifeforms, and constant danger and action.

In No Man’s Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you’ll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before – and perhaps never will again.

Embark on an epic voyage
At the centre of the galaxy lies a irresistible pulse which draws you on a journey towards it to learn the true nature of the cosmos. But, facing hostile creatures and fierce pirates, you’ll know that death comes at a cost, and survival will be down to the choices you make over how you upgrade your ship, your weapon and suit.

Find your own destiny
Your voyage through No Man’s Sky is up to you. Will you be a fighter, preying on the weak and taking their riches, or taking out pirates for their bounties? Power is yours if you upgrade your ship for speed and weaponry.
Or a trader? Find rich resources on forgotten worlds and exploit them for the highest prices. Invest in more cargo space and you’ll reap huge rewards.
Or perhaps an explorer? Go beyond the known frontier and discover places and things that no one has ever seen before. Upgrade your engines to jump ever farther, and strengthen your suit for survival in toxic environments that would kill the unwary.

Share your journey
The galaxy is a living, breathing place. Trade convoys travel between stars, factions vie for territory, pirates hunt the unwary, and the police are ever watching. Every other player lives in the same galaxy, and you can choose to share your discoveries with them on a map that spans known space. Perhaps you will see the results of their actions as well as your own…

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Friends & Family Plan Expands to Six New Countries

We’re always looking for ways to offer players more choice and value in how they discover and experience games with their friends and family. Beginning today, Xbox players in Chile, Hungary, Israel, New Zealand, South Africa, and Sweden will be able to join a plan that enables up to five friends and family members to share Game Pass Ultimate benefits. These countries will join the players participating in the plan in Colombia and Ireland.

This plan makes it even easier to play the best Game Pass games with friends and family across console, PC, and cloud. ​You can play at the same time on multiple devices and even play the same game at the same time​. Each member can enjoy the library of hundreds of games on console, PC, or cloud (in supported countries).  ​

You can add up to four people to your membership, all with their own unique access to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate games, content, and benefits. 


Things to know about this plan:


  • The people you share your membership with must reside in the same country as you.
  • Joining this plan will convert the time remaining on your membership to time in the new plan, based upon the monetary value of the old membership. For example, a full month of Ultimate will be converted to 18 days of membership for this plan. This way you won’t lose any of the remaining value on your existing subscription. Conversion is final, and users must wait for their new membership to expire before returning to a previous membership.
  • Conversion is not available for invited group members. Before joining a group, a group member can cancel their existing subscription or wait for it to expire. If they do not have a Microsoft account, invited friends and family will have to create a new Microsoft account and sign in with it to participate.
  • Members with Xbox All Access (in supported countries) won’t be able to participate in this plan.

Samurai Epic Like a Dragon: Ishin! Is Out Now
Coming to Xbox Game Pass: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, Soul Hackers 2, F1 22, and Merge & Blade
Explore Powderfall Bluffs in Slime Rancher 2: Song of the Sabers Free Update

Samurai Epic Like a Dragon: Ishin! Is Out Now

Summary

  • From the creators of the Yakuza series, heated samurai epic Like a Dragon: Ishin! is out now on Xbox and Windows PC.
  • Fight with katana, firearms, fists, and everything in a samurai’s arsenal to avenge Sakamoto Ryoma’s fallen master and trailblaze Japan’s revolution.
  • Xbox fans can download the deadly-elegant ‘Poet Immortal’ katana exclusively from the Microsoft Store for free.

Draw your blade and join the revolution! Like a Dragon: Ishin!, the latest game from the creators of Yakuza, is now available worldwide on Xbox Series X|S. Ishin! is a heated samurai epic that draws from real-world Japanese history and politics fuelled by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s over-the-top action combat.

Following the tale of Sakamoto Ryoma, this lone samurai’s fight for justice stands to change the course of Japan’s history forever.

Ishin! takes place in the 1867 Bakamatsu era, Japan. The country is in civil unrest due to widespread inequality, and political tensions are running high. Ryoma’s master falls in a political ploy, and his only lead to the assailant points to the Shinsengumi, the ruling Tokugawa Clan’s elite samurai police force. Vowing to avenge his master, Ryoma flees to the capital and joins the Shinsengumi undercover where his path entwines with that of the revolution.

The Ishin! launching today is a remake of its 2014 predecessor, which was never released outside of Japan. With tightened combat, enhanced graphics, full localization and all-new content, today’s Ishin! is truly the definitive version of the game to play. It’s largely to the credit of vocal Yakuza fans worldwide that the lost chapter of the Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio library arrives to Western shores on Xbox and Windows!

Certainly the katana is ubiquitous with samurai, but there was much more to their arsenal in 1860s. Ryoma can wield period firearms, swords and even his bare fists in four unique combat styles. You can seamlessly change your fighting style mid-fight to counter your opponents.

Poet Immortal katana image.

Forged by Sega exclusively for Xbox fans, those that want to be a cut above the rest can claim the Poet Immortal katana, a deadly blade with an elegant luster. Poet Immortal is available to download for free only on the Microsoft Store. Once downloaded, head to the Teradaya Inn, which is accessible from Chapter 2 onwards, to retrieve the weapon from Bakumatsu Bob.

Like a Dragon: Ishin! is now out on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows PC! Follow us on Twitter @RGGStudio for Like a Dragon series updates or visit ishin.sega.com to learn more.

Embark on the campaign solo or with friends, meeting memorable characters through beautifully dark settings and a gripping story, or go rogue through an expansive End Game and shared world where players will meet in towns to trade, team up to battle World Bosses, or descend into PVP zones to test their skills against other players – no lobbies necessary – with cross-play and cross-progression on all available platforms.

This is only the beginning for Diablo® IV, with new events, stories, seasons, rewards, and more looming on the horizon.
