Sure thing, let’s dive into this bustling world of Xbox games.
Alright, folks, buckle up because it’s that time again—Next Week on Xbox! Now, full disclosure, sometimes I can’t keep up with all the game releases. It’s like the universe wants to flood our senses with pixelated joy. So, grab your controllers as we stumble through this kaleidoscope of upcoming games. Release dates? Subject to change. Because, let’s face it, how often do plans actually go according to plan?
Mafia: The Old Country – Seriously, who doesn’t love a good old mob story, right? Set in Sicily, of all places. Enzo Favara’s up in the mix, trying to impress his Family — yea, with a capital F. This one drops August 8, but hey, don’t hold me to it. Could change, like how my mood swings when I see the cereal aisle. Anyway, Xbox Series X|S got some special love here.
GRADIUS ORIGINS – August 7. It’s like a retro cocktail, with 18 versions of blast-from-the-past arcade things. Salamander, Gradius, you name it. First time Gradius III AM mas made its way to a home console. Sounds like a collector’s dream or a newbie’s nightmare, no in-betweens. Did I mention it’s from Konami? Because it is.
Dark Steel Legends – August 5 says hello with a medieval beatdown. Ravenfell’s where warriors go to make a name, and maybe get a tavern named after them. Or not. Who knows? It’s risky business with high fantasy grit. Makes my palms sweat just thinking about it.
Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 – August 5. Again, not written in stone. Slice through demons and relive epic scenes straight from the anime. It’s like jumping into the TV, except you’re tangling with evil rather than missing remote controls. SEGA’s behind this. Yeah, that SEGA.
Little Helper Café Xbox + Windows Bundle – August 5, loaded with charm and a hedgehog, who is apparently quite the barista. Look, I don’t make the rules. He pushes sugar cubes into coffee, possibly better than I ever could. I’ve accepted this.

Witch It – August 5. This one’s a cat-and-mouse game, well, witch-and-hunter game is more like it. Hide and seek with a supernatural twist, because why not? Villages, islands, forests— basically, trust nothing.
Alien Breakout – August 6. Pixels, platforming, and extraterrestrial escapades. Ever wondered how it feels to escape a human lab as a green-skinned alien? Me neither but here we are.
