✖
Xbox Live Gold subscribers on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S can now download not one, not two, not three, not four, but five games for free, but only for a limited time, as part of Games With Gold. The first and most notable of these five games is
Gears 5, which is available to download for free until February 28.

✖
Xbox has announced a big backward compatibility update for Xbox Series X players, or more specifically, it s announced FPS boost, which will nearly double (and sometimes quadruple) the framerate of games available via backward compatibility. That said, if you re on Xbox One or Xbox One X, these improvements aren t coming to your classic games. According to Microsoft, this upgrade is only possible due to the power of the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. Further, right now, this isn t a universal upgrade, but will be a title-by-title upgrade.

And if you got lost in the next-gen console hoopla, you may not have realized that Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory came out in November. And yes, it is relevant to the overarching story.
