Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 7-8)

We’re still on Star Wars Outlaws

Another weekend begins! If you’re looking for things to play, we’ve got a few new releases on Xbox Game Pass, a couple of sport-focused Free Play Days titles, and hundreds more deals available to grab on the Xbox Store right now.

Here’s what we’re playing this weekend:

Fraser Gilbert, Editor
I’m really enjoying my time with Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions right now. To be honest I wasn’t expecting much at all from it, but the developers have done a great job turning it into a highly enjoyable gameplay experience that I don’t see myself giving up anytime soon. It needs more modes really, but it’s still keeping me invested.

I guess going back to Star Wars Outlaws is my other plan on Ubisoft+ before my month of access runs out. I’ve played a few hours so far and I’ve enjoyed it for the most part, but the stealth kinda puts me off. It’s got immaculate vibes for sure, and I love checking out all the little details, but yeah… when I keep getting caught in these lengthy stealth sections, it just makes me want to go and play something else. The rest of the PX team don’t agree with me though!

Have a good weekend, folks.

Craig Reid, Video Producer
(Fraser is right, I like the slinking around in Star Wars Outlaws – he’s silly)

Looks like I’ve got 48 hours of Space Marine 2 lined up for the weekend. Honestly, I can’t get enough of it—it’s phenomenal. Has anyone jumped into the early access launch yet? What’cha think?

Of course, I’ll have to, y’know… eat, sleep, and do all that other stuff, but for the most part, I’ll be tanked up in ceramite, tearing apart Tyranid filth. Oh, I’ll be checking out the upcoming Towerborne too, so keep an eye out for our impressions!

Have a great weekend, folks!
