Welcome to the last Xbox Game Pass addition for the month of June! Today, we have Robin Hood: Sherwood Builders coming to the library, which got a surprise Xbox Series X|S announcement earlier this month.
This Robin Hood romp is said to be an "action-adventure RPG with base-building elements" based on the famous English hero. We'll drop a closer look at this new Xbox Game Pass title down below:
Robin Hood: Sherwood Builders (Xbox Series X|S, PC, Cloud)
"You start your adventure with building a forest camp, which can soon be expanded following the arrival of new residents. You will be responsible for properly managing the space you secured for yourself within Sherwood Forest to build up the village.
As Robin's people grow large in number and strong in sword arm, an uprising in Nottingham may just become a reality, ending the Sheriff's tyranny once and for all. Can Robin Hood and his Merry Men survive and put an end to injustice? Their fate is up to you!"
Will you be trying out this new Xbox Series X|S RPG? Tell us your plans for it down below.

Sounds good but I don't want to base build I'll wait to check out a review
im on it! hopefully we can skip most base building.
stops download. xbox reviews says its a very choppy laggy
'30 fps" only.
ok it downloaded before i went to stop it and i played it. its kinda like a slow motion blurry 30fps but game mode on my tv helps. i think it would be a fun game with 60 fps mode or if i had 30 fps eyes.
series x.
Downloading it now, will try it after Sandrock (enjoying it much more than Portia) but I am expecting a fair degree of jank
I like it, about 9 hours in and base building feels like it could have been left on the shelf. Apart from a couple of main quests involving building certain buildings, base building seems to be tacked on to gatekeep better gear and skills. It's not Medieval Dynasty by any means, individual villagers are irrelevant and houses just add to the amount of villagers you can have.
This game is far better when questing and stopping executions, or finding random puzzles in the forest and figuring them out, imo. I'm loving that side of it, though have been distracted with farming mats for a better sword for the last hour. Jury is out on a score, but its been fun so far.
It suffers with being designed for kbm, so the controller implementation is quite lazy in places (move a cursor with the left stick). Add to that some untranslated text and it's clearly lacking a level.of polish, think Bethesda RPG on launch, not that bad to be fair but you get the idea lol
