Another week passes by, but this milestone is nothing to sneeze at as the XboxEra Podcast crew celebrate one hell of a milestone in the XboxEra Podcast Episode 250!

Jon is back from DICE 2025 in Las Vegas, Nick is recovering from a night of partying and Jesse is raising his head from playing a tonne of Avowed, but none of that will stand in the way of celebrating our 250th episode in style as Xbox CEO Phil Spencer stops by to mark the occasion for the community.

As well as talking about a few things that happened this week, the focus is on our time with Phil. We chat about a variety of things, from the Xbox Developer Direct, Microsoft’s new multiplatform approach and what Phil thinks when the community expresses concerns about Xbox becoming the next Sega. We also discover exactly what Phil got his for his birthday and just how good a game show host he could be if wanted to try a career change!

As always, XboxEra is completely supported by our incredible Patreon Community, and they are the ones that make doing reviews, previews and all our custom content possible. If you love what we do, please consider supporting us directly via Patreon.

A big thank you to you all for joining us on the journey - here's to another 250!
