Xbox To Announce Ori 3 At Gamescom? Moon Studios CEO Reckons It's 'Nonsense'

Update: Seemingly no announcement planned at the event.Last week, you may remember that we covered a potential "surprise" Xbox-published title that could show up at Gamescom 2026 in an announcement, and there's now been a suggestion that game is the third entry in the Ori series.One of the two people who mentioned the surprise was someone known as NateTheHate on social media, and they took to ResetEra over the weekend to state that "a new Ori was what I was referring to", but that they still didn't have confirmation on whether it would appear at Gamescom or not.Read the full article on purexbox.com

Two Former Xbox Studios Confirm Their Independence And Plans For The Future

"We get the publishing rights back to all our games".It's been a while now since Xbox announced that it was saying goodbye to four studios in Double Fine, Compulsion Games, Ninja Theory and Undead Labs back in July, and now two of them have confirmed they've completed the split.Double Fine's Tim Schafer appeared on a recent episode of the Kinda Funny Games podcast to explain that "buying any of our games helps support the studio" from this point onwards (rather than Microsoft specifically), but you might still see Xbox Game Studios as the publisher for some time yet as it "just takes a while for it to all process".Read the full article on purexbox.com

Feature: I'm Halfway Towards Getting GTA 6 For Free On Xbox, But I've Run Into Some

Bringing the cost down with Microsoft Rewards, one day at a time!Let's talk about Microsoft Rewards, eh? Back in June, we published an article about how you could use Microsoft Rewards to "reduce the price" of GTA 6, and that's exactly what I've been trying to do ever since on my Xbox account.We're two months on from that article, and I'm now halfway towards getting GTA 6 for free on Xbox. I already had a £20 Xbox Gift Card sitting on my account from a gift earlier in the year, and I've just redeemed another £25 Xbox GIft Card from the Microsoft Rewards points I've managed to accumulate in recent weeks. The Ultimate Edition is what I'm going for at £89.99, so I'm at the exact midpoint for what I need as things stand.Read the full article on purexbox.com

"It was clear how much this mattered...".Last week, upcoming action RPG The Blood of Dawnwalker received quite a lot of negative attention when it was revealed at the game only had 30FPS and 40FPS modes to choose from on Xbox Series X and PS5, but the developer has also now confirmed that a third Performance Mode will be available with 60FPS gameplay at launch.The team says it was "clear how much this mattered" to fans and they'd been working on a 60FPS option anyway, but they were still testing it and weren't ready to show it off.
