In case you’d hadn’t clocked on, today is April Fools’ Day, and we’ve been spotting plenty of April Fools’ Jokes on social media over the past few hours as a result, including a few that have been getting quite a bit of attention.<\/p>\n

In particular, the folks behind Zenless Zone Zero<\/a> (or “ZZZ” as it’s often called) teased that the game might be getting a release date for Xbox, and there are some who believe it might be hinting at an actual announcement. If you’re not aware, ZZZ is a popular free-to-play action RPG that’s been on PlayStation, PC and mobile for a couple of years.<\/p>\n

This is April Fools, but can’t help but feel like maybe a full Xbox ZZZ announcement is close by. https:\/\/t.co\/OkNwtvJeJi<\/a>\u2014 Jez (@JezCorden) April 1, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You know else I found heartbreaking? Xbox fan Klobrille posting on social media that Brutal Legend<\/a>: Remastered would be coming to Xbox Game Pass<\/a> this fall. I believed it for a second, and then realised what day it was!<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the creative poster that Klobrille put together for this:<\/p>\n

How about Insider Gaming as well? They posted this morning that GTA 6 would be getting a special “throwback edition” for Xbox 360, and you know what? I’d be all for it! It’d probably run at 10 frames per-second, but still…<\/p>\n

As you can see, their post has proved pretty popular on social media today:<\/p>\n

Finally, we’re going to give a shoutout to our sister site Nintendo Life<\/a>, which put a ton of effort into an April Fools’ Joke about something called “PLAYi” – a machine that’s designed to play your games for you!<\/p>\n

There’s both a website article and a video for this one, and it’s pretty funny stuff:<\/p>\n
