Does it live up to the next gen hype? Not really. But this time, I had the opportunity to play it all on Microsoft’s newest flagship console, the Xbox Series X. The Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition is two more episodes of Chaosbane, with a couple of new player classes thrown in. I think I even went so far as to call it akin to an unofficial expansion for Diablo III-just one that isn’t as polished as Blizzard’s beloved ARPG. In it, I make the argument that Warhammer: Chaosbane is closer to a Diablo clone than it is its own brand of action role-playing game (ARPG). You can check out my original review of Chaosbane here. That’s the case for previous released Warhammer: Chaosbane, which comes to the Xbox Series X|S with its complete Slayer Edition which includes new characters, more levels, and a graphics overhaul to bring it to standard for the next generation-sort of. Or at least, older games with “ultimate” or “complete” editions released with shiny new graphics updates. The next generation of consoles is here, and that means fresh and shiny new games for these new consoles. So, what do you think? Are you tempted to dip your toes into any of the freebies September has rolled out? Let us know over on our socials here.Screenshot: Warhammer Chaosbane Slayer Edition Or if you're feeling a little more adventurous, you can get your hands on Game Pass Ultimate for $14.99 a month, which includes all the perks of Live, as well as access to the entire Game Pass library. You can pick up Xbox Live Gold for $9.99 a month, with access to all online services as well as the monthly freebies. Besides that, then perhaps a Halo entry, again, as a way to attract a crowd before Infinite rolls out on December 8. Although if we had to put our money on it, then we'd say something Saints Row related, as a way to escalate hype for the 2022 reboot. As for what's to come for October - that's really anybody's guess. The roster will once again change over next month for another batch of freebies. You can get your hands on Mulaka until October 15, Samurai Shodown II until September 30, as well as Warhammer: Chaosbane until September 30.
