#NuNews: Chainsaw Bear!

We all want chainsaws for arms, but don't put them on your head.

That would just look silly.

We now have a newsletter! And you can sign up to be part of our beta testers. Or alpha users. Or founding members... Whatever you call it, you're welcome to come help us test it out. How do you sign up? You'll have to join our Discord for that...

Did you know Gamescom 2020 happened? We didn't. And we blame the fact that this is no longer in person. But it happened, and we have all the news for it. We go over all the games that were announced this year, and leave semi-unimpressed.

Call of Duty launches November 13th, so everyone gets quite excited about more guns. Grounded gives players the bird and water fleas. Just in case you weren't creeped out enough. The Division gets announced for Games with Gold, Lightstream is coming to our rescue for direct console streaming and Everwild is dropping Xbox One support... Wat could it mean?

Crusader Kings III emerges on Xbox Game Pass and comes with very high praise, along with Iron Harvest. A game we spoke about 3 years ago! Its finally coming out guys, we can all relax now. Educational Games for Kids get's Lee excited. Maybe a bit too much? But hey, we don't judge. Marvel's Avengers arrives on Xbox, sans Spiderman. But we don't have time to worry too much because we'll be too busy playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 Remaster!

The Xboxcast streams every recording on Twitch on Tuesdays at 7PM New Zealand Time. If you want to take part in on all the background fun, join us then!
