Technical difficulties
You wait months for a notable Xbox exclusive, then three turn up at once. With Hellblade II carrying the weight of the brand for much of the year, there’s a pervading sense that Microsoft’s various partners and subsidiary studios have pulled it round at the last with Indiana Jones And The Great Circle, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and STALKER 2. To an extent, we agree, but some technical failings suggest that it’s not always smart to arrive late.
