[Update: several more games now available]
We’re pretty sure nearly 99% of Xbox One owners are busy with Gears of War 4 at the moment (our grade “A” review here if you missed it), but of course, there are other releases this week for everyone interested in something else.
For that 1% there’s WWE 2K17, Solitaire, Reus and MGS V: The Definitive Experience so far. The week is young, so we expect a few more titles to check out soon.
There’s the Deals With Gold And Spotlight Sale + Xbox 360 Super Sale too as well.
Check out the content below.
