Episode 211
After years of gobbling up studios and feeding the Gamepass machine, Xbox is presently firing on all cylinders. Looking ahead, rumors are afoot about the next generation Xbox console integrating tightly with Steam. Today, we discuss these rumors and analyze the present state of Xbox. As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Monster Hunter Wilds, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Doom: The Dark Ages). This episode was recorded in May 2025. Intro and outro music composed for Gametalk by Dylan Chase (dylan.robert.chase@gmail.com).
