Ah cool, that reboot of 90s arcade classic Crazy Taxi Sega have been teasing for a little while, I thought during an otherwise rather meh Xbox showcase yesterday. Ah bollocks, I subsequently thought upon logging on this morning and seeing that Sega have disclosed their use of generative AI as part of Crazy Taxi: World Tour’s development.
Xbox’s latest decision to make some of its games exclusive again will not extend to multiplayer or live service titles.That’s according to Xbox chief content officer Matt Booty, who told GamerTag Radio that while the company will now be ensuring some of its games will be Xbox console exclusives, those with a multiplayer focus will still be released on other platforms (most likely including PlayStation 5).During its Xbox Games Showcase on Sunday, Xbox announced that Gears of War: E-Day and Clockwork Revolution will be console exclusives. It was later clarified that these aren’t timed exclusives, meaning there are no plans…
Halo: Campaign Evolved isn’t just a ground-up remake of one of the most formative first-person shooters of all time, it’s also an expansion of an iconic story with a separate prequel story titled Operation: Meteorite, and Halo Studios brought in an award-winning sci-fi author to make sure it lives up to the name.During today’s Xbox Showcase 2026 for Summer Game Fest, some footage was shown of Operation: Meteorite’s new prequel missions, which will send the Chief and Sgt. Johnson across enemy lines onto a Covenant research vessel for the UNSC and into some sweet looking space combat. “What starts as…
The Xbox Game Showcase’s best announcement was undoubtedly the actual announcement of Crazy Taxi: World Tour after it was teased three years ago. So, of course Sega has immediately killed all of that goodwill by confirming it used generative AI for it.During the showcase, a trailer kicked off with someone stacking cans before the dulcet tones of The Offspring’s Dexter Holland shouting “YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH,” and everyone whose knees currently hurt was immediately struck with excitement. While Sega did announce that Crazy Taxi was coming back during The Game Awards 2023 (alongside Jet Set Radio, Golden Axe, and…
The Xbox Showcase had a lot of big announcements. Gears of War: E-Day has a release date, console exclusivity is back, Persona 6 is real even if it didn’t give us much. Though none of those actually matter because I was too busy getting dazzled by life-sim Vivarium.If you thought you saw a Studio Ghibli movie in the middle of the showcase then you were mistaken, but you do know what game I’m talking about now. First announced in 2023, Vivarium is now set for a 2027 release, as revealed in the latest trailer, and it still looks as gorgeous…

One of the powers shown off earlier tonight…
The Persona 6 reveal could hardly have been less informative, so we’ve no choice but to scrounge the newly minted store page for something of substance. At a glance: not a lot, but not nothing.For my money, the main takeaway for the Persona 6 store page is what Atlus isn’t doing – namely, fixing what isn’t broken. Compared to previous releases, the studio is also strongly emphasizing approachability – presumably hoping to bring all the people who bought Persona 5 back for another game.”Persona 6 brings everything beloved about the series into a bold new story,” the description reads. “The…
Tonight’s hotly anticipated Summer Game Fest event was the annual Xbox Games Showcase, and boy, did it bring us some cool reveals – including one of Spyro: A Realm Beyond, a title we’ve waited nearly two decades for.The last proper Spyro entry landed a whopping 18 years ago with The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, but Activision and Toys for Bob are finally back with a new entry in the beloved series… one that sounds like it’s shaping up to be the biggest we’ve ever seen – free-flying and all.Speaking in a new interview with Xbox itself, Toys…
