GAMES
While Casually Xbox plays mainly Elder Scrolls Online on the Xbox platform some of us do play other games from time to time. I highly recommend taking regular breaks from your main mmorpg to avoid burnout. Mingle with guild members, try something different. Subscribing to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is perfect for this & I highly recommend doing so. Here are the games that our guild members have been dabbling into (some free, some from Xbox Game Pass):
Tales of Tribute
This might seem like a bit weird of an addition. Tales of Tribute is a card game in Elder Scrolls Online (Activities / Tales of Tribute). I have been addicted to it ever since it came out & am always looking for people to play with. DM me (OGCryptor) if you want to play and/or learn how to play it 🙂 If you play it regularly let me know so that we can put together a list of players here.

Call of Duty Warzone 2 & DMZ
Many of us enjoy having a shooter on the list of games we play, and Call of Duty is the best one on the market hands down. Warzone 2 (battle royale) & DMZ (think of it as simplifies Escape from Tarkov) are free to play on Xbox and do not require any subscriptions (see Free Games section on the Xbox store). Warzone 2 is a Battle Royale in a team of up to 4 people and DMZ is a 3-player mode. I keep these installed & play them daily. Check them out and please DM me if you! If you play it regularly let me know so that we can put together a list of players here.

Sea of Thieves
Super fun, cstylized graphics but has some of the most realistic water I have seen in any game. You play a group of pirates, running around on a ship you can decorate, fighting skeletons and hunting for treasure. The only drawback to this game for me is that it’s open world PvP, which means that occasionally you can encounter some very hostile pirates 😛 If you play it regularly let me know so that we can put together a list of players here.

Tetris Effect
It’s Tetris, and it’s awesome. I play this regularly. This is a great game to jump into to just get a break from everything. Updated graphics, a number of different modes (including multiplayer Tetris battles:) ), if you like Tetris I promise you will really enjoy this one! I always keep this installed. If you play it regularly let me know so that we can put together a list of players here.

Rainbow Six Extraction
3-person, team PvE shooter, really, really good. Check it out! This is one of my fav games to jump into for a game or two every now and then. This is a game I play very frequently, join me! they have a referral program with some cosmetics as rewards so here is a shameless plug. If you play it regularly let me know so that we can put together a list of players here, and also let’s post your referral link here as well.

World of Tanks
Back in the day I was pretty heavily into this game. Slow paced PvP in tanks, how can you not love this! I believe this is a free game that does not even require Xbox Live subscription or Xbox Game Pass. If you like Tanks, or just want a pvp game that is much slower pace than shooters, this is the game for you! This game has been around for a little while. I used to attend RL gatherings where the company representative would meet a group of players at a museum and go over all the tanks, etc… It was really fun. If you play it regularly let me know so that we can put together a list of players here.

I absolutely love this franchise and highly recommend you check it out. outstanding campaign, great monsters, amazing graphics, super fun PvP, ton of gore, I cannot recommend it enough! If you would like to try it, play some co-op campaign or try pvp, please let me know!

Honorable Mentions
There are so many truly great multiplayer games on Xbox, while the ones listed above, we play regularly, there is a number of multiplayer games that we occasionally pick up. Here is a list of great multiplayer games that some of us have been known to play from time to time:
Forza Horizon – one of the greatest racing games ever made, available through Xbox Game Pass.
Division 2 – this game is fantastic and holds a truly special place in my heart. I play every game in the Division franchise. Check it out!
World of Warships – if you like pvp & ships this is THE game for you. This game is all about positioning and strategy, slow paced PvP.
Zombie Army 4 – imho one of the best Zombie games ever made. if this is something you are into, I highly recommend you check it out (and let me know if you do, I love playing it).
