That's right Xbox fans – tell all your friends because Pure Xbox is back in the game!
It's been nearly four years since we last posted, and in that time a lot has happened. With Xbox Series X just around the corner and the continued success of our other publications Nintendo Life and Push Square, we decided now would be the perfect time to slip back into our familiar lime-green slippers and relaunch Pure Xbox as we all prepare for the impending arrival of "next-gen" gaming.
We'll be introducing you to the new team over the coming days, but those familiar with our other sites and past Pure Xbox contributors will notice many familiar faces rubbing shoulders with some new ones.
What's more, the new website is totally backwards-compatible with the old one (see what we did there?), so we've retained all the single-sign-on user accounts within our network and restored all the old community content.
So, welcome back one and all. Please do let us know what you want to see on the new site in the comments below.

It's good to be back.
Hello there lovely Pexbox.
It's so shiny!
Wow, the grass really is greener over here.
Welcome back, Pure Xbox
welcome back
This is pretty great!
WOW! Just Wow! I hope the site is as good as it used to be!
Lovely stuff. Loooovely.
@FraserG @Damo it's good to have you back too but it's going to take time to get going, i have announced in the Nintendo Life XBOX forum that the site is back so hopefully more people will come round
so don't be disheartened if posts are slow, it will pick up i'm sure
I missed this website. Kind of moved away from Xbox gaming since 2017 but I still have an Xbox One and haven't found a site dedicated strictly to the brand that I enjoyed as much as this one. Hopefully some of the old crew that used to chill out around here will see this and return as well.
@FullbringIchigo Appreciated!
Welcome back Pure Xbox!!! It's great to see now I have a place to go for my Xbox news!!! I hope @SuperKMx is coming back always enjoyed reading his stuff.
Looking forward to seeing how Microsoft can claw back some market share with the new console
@KratosMD I am obsessed with all things Game Pass and Game Pass Quests. I'll do my very best to keep you updated!
Can't wait to see this site take off!
Welcome back!
Well, this is a weird but neat surprise!
@antdickens Hold on a minute, this site has been posting for days, and you didn't tell us?
@Octane we've been posting behind closed doors, self-isolating from the world until today
About time!!! Welcome back...
Man, this is awesome. Welcome back!
Green is gooooood
Well, this is a great surprise. I think I visited here once in a while before, but never used it as much as Nintendo Life (this was back when CVG and ONM closed up shop). Now that it is back, I'll be keeping an eye on it around the same as Nintendo Life.
@antdickens "Microsoft can claw back some market share with the new console"
"Microsoft can claw back some market share putting Gamepass and Xcloud on Switch"
Figured I'd come in swinging.
Also, this is comment of the day, I don't need to read anymore.
"we've been posting behind closed doors, self-isolating from the world until today"
Hey @Octane you wanna tell them or should I?
Beyond Good & Evil 2 (Xbox One) 2016
https://www.purexbox.com/games/xbox-one/beyond_good_and_evil_2
I'll give you guys this, you got some great bolshy yarblockoes to be restarting up an Xbox site the week E3 got canceled. Kinda nuts.
While I think XSX may do ok, I think MS is going all in on Gamepass and Xcloud so I hope you'll be covering that as well, and not just purely Xbox. We don't have an Xbox but both of my kids have Gamepass Ultimate accounts on PC, looking forward to Ori 2. Which I'm expecting a review of to be 1 off your first articles.
Good luck guys. Hopefully Gamestack doesn't get canceled next week so you have something to write about. You're a brave bunch.

Oh, and speaking of canceled, you should add Scalebound to the canceled page, it's practically the Xbox 1's legacy.

I know, it's a new site, you're just re-starting out, and I'm just trying to be helpful, in my own way. 😎
Glad to see it back! I've never posted on PS, but here I am. Not sure what that says, but here I am!
And @rjejr is here. The world really is ending.....
@NEStalgia "And @rjejr is here. The world really is ending....."
I was going to say the same about you. You're here for 1 post and you're already going off topic about the world ending. You're gonna make us the first 2 people banned from the site.
Oh well, at least we'll get to make the acquaintance of whoever's in charge of keeping law & order around here right quick.
@rjejr instant ban.
Ah, yesss.... The Dark Side is back again...
Time to resume my quest for the stones, erm... I mean ultimate console...
Nice to see this site back especially with Xbox news being a lot more prominent nowadays.
Welcome back! I'm looking forward to Xbox news again especially with Series X just a few months away.
"Wake me, when you need me."
I seriously have been checking this site every month or so to see if it’s back online... it’s nice to have every system represented again. Honestly I haven’t been able to find a quality site in the meantime to fully cover Xbox news. Welcome back, my friends!
Excellent, the Trinity is complete 😀
Welcome back!!!
Great news indeed! The people that worked on it are great and professional. The website was always high-quality.
I beg you to support PureXbox a little more this time even if they don't use as much clickbait as others.
Now we have more than a sole thread on Nintendo Life to discuss all things Xbox (the big question is will Antilogic be here repeating that he's not interested in Xbox at all because, according to him, there are only shooter and racing games on Xbox? Time will tell ).
Thanks to the original staff and to anyone joining the site. I'll be around.
@KratosMD Thanks for giving me the heads up mate!
This is fantastic news, welcome back guys!
I've been living over on Halo Waypoint in the interim.
Gotta keep the green flame burning.
Oh, hello there.
wonderful news
I frequently play the Windows Store Xbox games, so I will check out reviews and news here!
Welcome back. Heard of the site's resurrection in one of the PushSquare articles.
How PureXBox will be related to OutsideXBox?
This makes me happy! I loved this site when it was around before!
@AlexOlney
I read that in your voice.
Holy cow it's good that see this site back! Has it really been 4 years? I enjoy keeping up to date with all the consoles and reading reviews for third party games on multiple sites and now I have my favorite suite of websites with some of my favorite people around to fill all those needs!
It's ALIVE. IT'S ALIVE!!!
So happy to see this site back up! You guys are amazing and I'm excited to start using this site regularly again
So glad your back up and running Pure Xbox! I’ve been lingering over at Push Square for the past 4 years so it’ll be great to be getting some dedicated Xbox news from you guys from now on. Pretty sure you’ll be getting a few members from Push Square visiting now and again to see what the competition is up to.
That's great, welcome back! If Microsoft gets everything right with Series X, it might be my first console outside of Nintendo... Man... That Gamepass and Backwards Compatibility is tempting me and teasing me to buy it.
Very important after enjoying it so much on Xbox One. Microsoft added it free of charge even when including upgrades and enhancements and they're willing to include any game. They couldn't have done it better and it's a key part of Xbox now.
Finding out late but so so excited you're back! It's been tough seeing the other two represented without team green representation from your team the last four years! All aboard the hype train baby.
Just found out you were back!! Pure Xbox was always my go-to site for Xbox news and I was gutted when it closed. Glad to see it back!
I know I'm super late but I also just found out you guys were back. Really glad to see the site back up and running!
Commenting to wish it a happy 2nd year! I remember the launch & happy to see all the coverage!
