What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 5-6)

The weekend begins! There’s lots to enjoy on Xbox over the next couple of days, including some new Xbox Game Pass additions, a couple more Free Play Days titles, a free beta for Off The Grid, and plenty of great deals to grab!

Here’s what we’re playing this weekend:

I’m once again in one of those situations where I can’t actually talk about what I’m playing this weekend. I’m enjoying my time with [REDACTED] so far though, and look forward to sharing my review of it hopefully next week

Beyond that, I’m very keen to check out these new Baldur’s Gate 3 mods and I’ve also got some more NHL 25 to dig into, so there’s plenty for me to keep busy with. Football Manager 2024 is still getting my attention on PC Game Pass as well — I’ll definitely play the new one in November, but I’m not giving up my 2024 save anytime soon!

Have a good weekend, folks.

So many games, so little time this weekend. But I will find an hour or two for Metaphor: Refantazio. Have you tried the demo yet? The music absolutely slaps! And I can already tell I’ma be obsessed with the story.

Normally, this is where I’d mention what else I’ll be playing, but honestly, it’s just going to be Metaphor. However, if the gang’s around, I might hop onto Pro Clubs on FC 25. Our team’s Lord of the Rings themed—we’re called Gondor United, and our formation? “Four-For-Frodo.” – comedy gold, innit?

Take care, and have a lovely weekend, folks!
