Unlock-Block Trivia Special - Podcast Unlocked

This episode is much cheerier than the last one as the news is (for the most part) much better! For instance, a new statement from the president of Square Enix strongly suggests that Xbox players will no longer be left behind on future Final Fantasy game releases – or any other game Square Enix makes. Plus: rumors of a new Doom being revealed at the upcoming Xbox Showcase heat up as Ryan implores Stella to play Doom Eternal, Assassin's Creed Shadows sounds like Ubisoft straight-up built a Splinter Cell game into it (mechanically speaking), and more!

Final Fantasy Back to Xbox for Good? – Unlocked 645

Another devastating wave of Xbox layoffs results in the closure of three Bethesda studios, including the makers of last year's shadow-dropped hit Hi-Fi Rush and the decorated developers of Prey. We do our best to make sense of the move from Microsoft, a company that has spent the better part of the past decade trying to add talent and get more exclusive games on its platforms.

Xbox’s Newest Rising Stars – Unlocked 643

Destin and Ryan dive into the most pleasant surprise of the week: an announcement of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, plus a fantastic reveal trailer to accompany it! We talk a bit about the first game and why we're so hyped for this one – plus why this Fall is suddenly looking mighty good for fans of first-person fantasy RPGs. Plus: Halo Infinite gets another excellent update that leads us into a discussion about more Xbox-based TV shows, we lament the single-player GTA5 DLC we never got, and more!
