We are already on Sunday and a week awaits us, at least in Europe, which is usually called “long weekend”, with two holidays in between that will help us and a lot to be able to play the great titles to come out these first days of December. Of course, we thought they were going to be less hectic, but the truth is that everything continues to appear as usual, thanks in part to the upcoming The Game Awards, which have already sparked several rumors.
The first and perhaps most striking new title announcement in recent days is Monster Hunter Rise for Xbox Series X | S and Xbox One. Capcom’s game, previously exclusive to Nintendo Switch and PC, will be making the leap to desktop consoles and to our delight, so will Xbox Game Pass. We couldn’t miss the opportunity to open with the trailer of this tremendous hit that will be with us in 2023.

But we’re at the beginning of the month and of course that means it’s loaded with releases on Xbox Game Pass, which we anticipated on December 1, in which we announced the arrival of games such as hello neighbor 2, Raised on life, Hot Wheels Unleashed at the service, as well as the great LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Collection, considered the best LEGO game to date. Check them all here. If you don’t like them, you can always mark your next game on the calendar by checking out all the titles coming to Xbox during the month of December, whether or not they’re on the service.
However, the bad news comes at the beginning, because in the middle of the month we will have to say goodbye to other games like Aliens: Fireteam Elite and many others which you can check here.
And from the survey we did, we may also paradoxically have to mark it as bad news, because despite the fact that Games With Gold gives us two games for free to all members, fans are quite unhappy with the selection that Microsoft offers in the service., which, begins to be frustrating for many. It’s December’s Games with Gold.
Microsoft vs Sony relax and the Xbox Series takes the lead in sales
This week we’re not going to share much of the drama like this in all caps because there really was some commentary about it and the rumor that Microsoft met with Sony to ask them what they wanted ask for that little mouth. They want the purchase complete, and it looks like Activision and Microsoft are more than willing to go to court with anyone to defend their union.
And after Black Friday, we know other results, like the Xbox Series being one of the most wanted products in the US or it ended up selling more consoles than the PS5 in the UK. United, being the second best-selling console, but close to the Nintendo Switch in sales (42% against 40% of the total). The PS5 has probably faced another shortage of units, but what we fear is that this is another cartridge for the pistol from the British CMA, which is not among the supporters of the PS5. purchase of Activision.
More than one clever one has gouged out their eyes with the Callisto
On a different note, we started the week with our dear colleague Frank Montes, who analyzed The Knight Witch, an excellent metroidvania from the Spanish Super Mega Team whose result was round. And maybe not that much The Callisto Protocolthe blockbuster from Krafton and Striking Distance Studios, which was embroiled in a sea of reviews due to its terrible PC version, with serious graphical errors.
For our part, after testing it on Xbox Series X, we have not experienced them in any way. On the contrary, our analysis gave it an A, because despite all the blame it turned out to be one of the titles with the best graphics of the year, with impressive action and a worthy successor. of what would be a modern Dead Space. Could it have been better? Of course, but just like that, like that, we loved it.
Todd forever
And if Todd Howard appears, the world stops. At least the presses stop, because in an interview he said a lot of new and very interesting things about Starfield, but what we liked the most is that he is very happy that it is exclusive to Xbox, because that way they didn’t feel so much pressure to keep tabs on other platforms. But it wasn’t all Starfield. The long-awaited The Elder Scrolls 6 also popped up in the conversation, from which he pulled off some wonderful gems – which are hard to believe – because people are going to be playing it for “decades”. This Todd never disappoints with the Hype. This week we finally have The Game Awards on the 8th, will we see anything big? In this article you can see our rantings.
By the way, a new Starship Troopers game has been announced. We don’t know how it will be, but we leave you with the trailer:
