Defining Duke, Episode 267 | Xbox's 2026 Game Release Schedule Has Leaked...
🕑 Added 2026-02-12 17:00:30 +0000 UTCAs Grand Theft Auto VI begins to lock in its November 19th release date, we're already started to see publishers scramble with their release plans. A recent report out of The Verge firms up that Xbox, like much of this industry, will be attempting to evade the blast zone. As such, they are moving some games up and there's a chance others fall out of the year. Joining Matty this week is Last Stand's own Brad Ellis to talk about everything from Halo Campaign Evolved to Gears Of War: E-Day as we debate and discuss the respective windows of these games. The main question that lingers in our head is if Xbox is avoiding Grand Theft Auto, does that leave December as an option? If not, can all of their 2026 calendar make it out in the anniversary year or would it be best to delay some games into early 2027 for additional polish and breathing room?

Why wouldn’t Gears be the game to move to 2027? We’ve seen nothing and expected after fable

I for the life of me can't understand people who sing to the skies about a Steam Machine console but can't seem to understand what Microsoft is doing with their console. Of course their OS is in more of a beta form. They NEED to test it en mass to get it right. They're taking an OS that runs the world and trying to make it do something very niche. It takes time. Then we have the ...oh man how will consumers understand what Xbox to buy. Oh Intel, oh Lenovo.. help me help me I don't understand. All you have to do is look at the PC market. People will figure it out. Starfield too polished was the problem?! What? It was the lack of interesting exploration and lack of interesting weapons. The main quest was so interesting and there was tons of excellent side quests. It also felt great to play. It wasn't too polished. And Brad, Bethesda was known as Bugthesda long before Xbox acquired them. Their games running chunky/poorly isn't anything new. The back end of this episode was irritating as hell. Needed more balance and Brad pushback in my opinion. Still, it was an entertaining listen, and I'll see y'all next week. #betabootyslap
