Forever Skies Brings High‑Tech Survival From PS5 to Xbox
If you have been waiting for a substantial new survival experience on Xbox Series X, keep an eye on Forever Skies. Previously a PS5 console exclusive, this first‑person sci‑fi survival game is finally heading to Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S sometime this summer. After debuting in Early Access on Steam and launching fully on PC and PS5, developer Far From Home is preparing its third platform release. Forever Skies strands you above a post‑apocalyptic, ecologically devastated Earth. You scavenge ruined locations, craft tools, and, crucially, build and upgrade a high‑tech airship that acts as both base and lifeline. The campaign can be tackled solo or in online co‑op with up to three friends, making it a flexible addition to the current lineup of Xbox Series X games. Expect a tense loop of exploration, resource management and environmental danger when it lands on the platform later this summer.
Dragon Is Dead Lands on Xbox and Expands the Action RPG Lineup
Dragon Is Dead has slashed its way from PC to consoles, launching on Xbox Series X|S alongside PS5 and Nintendo Switch. Developed by TeamSuneat and published by PM Studios, it is a dark fantasy hack‑and‑slash roguelite built around fast, aggressive combat and deep character customization. You choose from distinct classes like the spell‑focused Spellblade, heavy‑hitting Berserker, or precision‑based Hunter, then shape each run through class‑specific skill trees, rune slots and gear progression. Runs push you through corrupted, ever‑shifting environments where you hunt Legendary and Mythic loot instead of grinding static dungeons. For players who crave endgame challenges, the new Rift mode unlocks after beating Adventure difficulty, offering ten escalating waves across multiple maps and rewarding exclusive gems for top‑tier builds. With its console debut and roguelite replayability, Dragon Is Dead on Xbox gives action RPG fans another challenging, loot‑driven alternative alongside more traditional Xbox Series X games.
Samson and The Expanse: Osiris Reborn Beta: Story‑Heavy Worlds to Watch
Looking ahead, Samson and The Expanse: Osiris Reborn are two narrative‑driven projects that should be on every story fan’s radar. Samson, from Liquid Swords and Just Cause creator Christofer Sundberg, is now confirmed for a September launch on Xbox Series X|S. Framed as an open‑world action game with a strong focus on story, Samson: A Tyndalston Story follows Samson McCray, a man crushed by financial pressure and pulled into a violent spiral where the city dynamically reacts to his choices. Meanwhile, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn closed beta is live on Xbox Series X|S, though access is limited to players who purchased the Collector’s Edition or Miller’s Pack. Set after the catastrophic events on Eros, this third‑person sci‑fi action RPG lets you play a Pinkwater Security mercenary, assemble a crew, and make consequential dialogue choices aboard a remote station. The beta offers a slice of companion interactions, combat, and upgrade systems ahead of the full launch, giving Expanse fans an early look at this ambitious Xbox Series X game.
A $12 Monster Hunter Wilds Deal and Solo Leveling’s Anime Hook
If you want immediate value, Monster Hunter Wilds on Xbox Series X is the standout deal. Best Buy has dropped the physical Xbox Series X version to USD 12.49 (approx. RM60), an eye‑catching discount from its original full‑price launch just months ago. Reports indicate this is roughly an 80% reduction, driven more by inventory clearance than any quality issues. Monster Hunter Wilds still delivers intricate weapon systems, deep maps, and four‑player co‑op hunts that reward mastery over button‑mashing, making the current Monster Hunter Wilds deal a near‑essential pick‑up for newcomers and a perfect way for veterans to onboard friends. Anime fans also have a reason to keep their Xbox close. Xbox and Netmarble have released a new Jeju Island story trailer for Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive and confirmed that the Xbox Series X|S version is coming this fall. As the first console‑tailored Solo Leveling title, this action RPG tie‑in is shaping up to be a key anime crossover to watch on Xbox.
