Come fly away with this week’s Xbox Games Store update…

After two years as a PC and PS4 exclusive, Hello Games will bring No Man’s Sky to the Xbox One alongside the game’s newest Next expansion. Players will be able to explore a massive universe, and now they’ll even have the chance to team up with friends thanks to a recently-added online multiplayer option.

Capcom’s new compilations will include all eight games from the Mega Man X series, and both will gives fans the chance to glimpse rare behind-the-scenes material in the Museum Mode and do battle against two different bosses at the same time in the brand new X Challenge Mode.

Finally this week, Stoic’s Banner Saga… err… saga will come to a close with The Banner Saga 3. The strategic RPG doesn’t give players any easy answers, and the question becomes “who can you trust, how will you protect your allies, and what choices will you make as the Darkness draws near?”
