EA Sports' last outing with the FIFA license in FIFA 23 leads the way as a handful of new games have been revealed as coming to Microsoft's subscription service throughout the rest of May.

As Age of Empires continues to enjoy a resurgence of late, Microsoft has seen fit to deliver even more of the classic RTS, today releasing Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition - Return of Rome to the retail landscape. On top of a re-release of the classic game this expansion also features loads of new content.
That's Diablo IV game director Joe Shelly talking about the story of the game, which is set many years after the events of Diablo III, covering a new conflict between Lilith and Inarius - two forces from the High Heavens and the Burning Hells that created Sanctuary. If you've played Diablo 4 during any of the recent Beta weekends, you would have got a taste of what to expect and an early look at the dark and gothic tone of Diablo 4's narrative.
Coming to both PC and Xbox this month, Evil Villain is a game that flips the script, literally. You play as a defeated final boss. Your abode has been claimed by the heroic err... 'hero' of the piece, and you want to get it back and regain your position as a person of extreme power and importance. And you're more than willing to tell the player about this again and again.
Games come and games go. To be an IP of stature in the crowded gaming industry is a feat unto itself. But few IP carry the weight and gravity of anything with the name "Zelda" attached. So what does the latest foray into that world spell for the greater world of gaming? Ummm... lots of work and school sickies, we reckon.
Ahh, Shadowman, the iconic action-adventure game from the N64 era holds a special place in our hearts here at AusGamers. So the news of its return is very welcome. Shadowman: Darque Legacy from Syndey-based Blowfish Studios is described as a "heart-pounding single-player action horror game" coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC in 2024.
Mouse is a new first-person shooter that channels the spirit of cartoons from the 1920s, ala Cuphead and its black-and-white visuals and presentation look impressive in motion. A mix of old-timey animation and modern 3D visuals, Mouse is something we didn't know we needed - and we now can't wait to see more.
Diablo IV Server Slam Beta kicks off this weekend; it's your final chance to play before launch and earn that sweet Beta Wolf Pack Cosmetic Item and the brand-new Cry of Ashava Mount Trophy that looks awesome. Today comes word that the Server Slam will support NVIDIA's new groundbreaking DLSS 3 rendering tech, and if you're in the market for a new graphics card, now's the time to consider something from the GeForce RTX 40 Series.
Starfield is easily one of the year's most anticipated releases, the long-awaited next massive RPG from the team behind Skyrim and Fallout 4. Out September 6, 2023, for Xbox Series X|S and PC, it's also a brand-new IP for the studio and arguably the biggest first-party Xbox Game Studios launch for the latest generation of consoles.
Today a new patch for the rocky (yet very good) Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was made available across all platforms with various fixes for each. As noted in our review experience, we had some dips in frame-rate but overall it was a solid and bug-free run, however, we and EA and Respawn are aware that it hasn't been all gravy for everyone.
With the success of Netflix's Drive to Survive series as well as the on-the-track battle for dominance in the ultra-competitive world of F1, it makes sense that the next chapter in Codemasters' F1 series, now published through the EA Sports label, would tap into that sort of energy. And this reveal trailer is full of energy.
Arkane, Bethesda, and Xbox Game Studios' Redfall is one of the most disappointing releases of 2023 for several reasons, but mainly because it feels like a collection of ideas and mechanics in search of a game. The island setting and vampire slaying action can be fun at times, but it's an experience that is also plagued with technical issues.
"Action and atmosphere" is synonymous now with FromSoftware -- developer behind the ultra-popular Souls series of games as well as Elden Ring and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. But before those games the studio dabbled in the world of mechs and mech combat, and this year it will be launching Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon and it's looking very good.
Or should that be Nautical Chart? Whatever the case, the brilliant cosmic-inspired atmospheric-horror fishing game, Dredge, is in line to pull up some new content for all the eager anglers out there who likely helped forge some of the decisions behind these upcoming additions.
Today marks the release date for the long-awaited Redfall from Arkane Austin, Bethesda, and Xbox, with the game now playable and available via Xbox Game Pass for Xbox Series X|S and PC. The review code for this one came in hot over the weekend, so we're not quite done with our adventure through the sleepy vampire-infested town of Redfall, but so far, it's a disappointing outing for the studio known for great games like Dishonored and Prey.
Steam has become as synonymous with gaming as I am to the local pub in a specific seat at a specific time (such as right now). And for those not in the know, there's a backended Steam Client Beta that is constantly seeing new updates and implementations of ideas and community wants or tweaks from feedback on existing features.
Overnight Valve announced a host of recent chages to the beta platform it wants punters to check out and offer more feedback on.
