Xbox looks set to hold its E3-style showcase in June​

With E3 skipping its third year, Microsoft has contacted publishers about its own digital showcase, it’s claimed

That’s according to GamesBeat journalist Jeff Grubb, who claimed in a video show on Friday that Microsoft is currently talking to publishers about a June event. This matches what VGC has heard from our own sources.

“I’ll probably have more to say on this soon, but it’s in June, not May,” Grubb said. “Well, they might do something in May or September, I don’t know, but I know that they’re planning for an E3-style show in June.

“They’re talking to partners to get big games in there. That is ongoing right now and it’s March, so it’s not like they can change that train or turn that big ship around. They are heading in that direction and they’re going to do something in that timeframe.”

CRACKDOWN 4 BAYBEEEE

 

[niilokin]

3 months and we will see starfield in action

 

[TheGodfather07]

should be a big show and a long one too. starfield alone will probably take up 20-30 mins.

 

[PlayedStation]

Can't wait!!

 

[Punished Miku]

Im keeping expectations lower. Probably just the last 6 months of 2022 stuff which is fine with me. Starfield deep dive is enough along with Gamepass lineup for the 2nd half of the year.

I want to see less cg trailers of stuff years away. They killed it last year. Hopefully they do it again.

 

[Robb]

Looking forward to it!

 

[Mister Wolf]

I would expect to see Indiana Jones gameplay.

 

[Starforce2005]

I need some Hellblade 2 news

 

[fermcr]

Good for Microsoft. E3 is still the most important gaming showcase.
Nintendo and Sony(???) should follow ...

 

[Chukhopops]

I can already hear it in my head

 

[Pantz]

Lots of projects I'd like to see in-game footage of
Forza Motorsport
Gears of War
Fable
Starfield
Perfect Dark
Avowed

Feels like a maybe for any of them.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

I would expect to see Indiana Jones gameplay.

I hope not. it's way too early. They've shown enough stuff that was years out as it is.

 

[Killer8]

Hard to believe it's almost E3 again already.

 

[Agent_Nobody]

Some Starfield gameplay would be nice.

 

[DenchDeckard]

w,w,w,w,w,w,w,w,woooorld premiere!

lets goooo!

 

[Calverz]

 

[anthony2690]

I would love a new Killer Instinct

 

[TurnOneYeti]

Gameplay of Fable and Perfect Dark is really all I need. An update on Everwild's development and anything about Starfield that isn't production art would be nice aswell.

 

[PropellerEar]

Hope for some new IP, Xbox output has been extremely stale.

 

[Mister Wolf]

I hope not. it's way too early. They've shown enough stuff that was years out as it is.

I expect Jones in 2023.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

I expect Jones in 2023.

No chance. It started dev last year.

 

[adamsapple]

I expect Jones in 2023.

Way too early

I can already hear it in my head

And the "releasing on game pass day 1" tag to go with it.


uungghh !

 

[Alandring]

I really hope we will have news about As Dusk Falls.

 

[reksveks]

I really hope we will have news about As Dusk Falls.

Same, I know it's a niche but i do enjoy those types of games.

 

[Markio128]

Should be a good one and hopefully full to the brim with gameplay.

 

[Spaceman292]

CRACKDOWN 4 BAYBEEEE

Can't wait for a pre rendered trailer, 6 years of radio silence then a sudden release without anyone noticing and faded from memory within a week.

 

[Topher]

Show me gameplay from Starfield, Fable, and Perfect Dark and I'll be a happy man.

 

[Plantoid]

Hope for some new IP, Xbox output has been extremely stale.

Starfield
Red fall
Coming 2022

After June we will know what NEW IPs they launch in 2023 (we already know of at least 5, but don't have a date)

Quake Quake Quake

 

[Markio128]

My Xbox is literally gagging for some new games; the only meaningful time I’ve spent with it is playing FH5.

 

[Sosokrates]

 

[DaGwaphics]

Expecting Starfield, Red Fall, and Forza Motorsport. A peek into the first half of 2023 and some GP news and I'd be all set.

 

[kingfey]

I liked their last E3 formula. Less talk, and more showcase about the games. Hope we see events like those.

 

[Hezekiah]

I hope not. it's way too early. They've shown enough stuff that was years out as it is.

Yeah the July 2020 showcase had way too much of that (CGI teasers), but they do need to show something of Starfield.

 

[Bernd Lauert]

I expect nothing less than a 30 minute Starfield presentation. Todd Howard will say "see that galaxy? you can warp there" and it's gonna be beautiful.

 

[Marvel]

I would love a new Killer Instinct

Yes please

 

[kingfey]

I hope not. it's way too early. They've shown enough stuff that was years out as it is.

Dude, it's MS. If anything, they love, it's the cool CGI.

They will want all maximum hype they can get.

 

[Jaybe]

Hopefully there are some committed 2022 releases of note besides November’s Starfield. A surprise announcement and near term release by XGS would be great. For me, EA and third party have carried my XSX & GPU sub. I expect we get Deathloop in September, thought unlikely they can say anything in June.

i dont see anything releasing from their 1st party studios in 2022 , maybe that small rpg from obsidian

 

[BusierDonkey]

They will never top Skittles, Milo or the bottom of an Avatar's foot, but I hope they try.

 

[Riky]

It's time.

I am really hoping they tone down the cgi personally, it sadly does nothing for me

But I have this complaint with every game that reveals with cgi.

 

[mortal]

Over 23 different studios. Go big or go home.
I don't care if they announce titles releasing 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years from now. They have no excuses to have a dry-ass E3 showcase this year.

 

[adamsapple]

It's time.

I would love this, but I feel like it's too soon. The game probably hasn't reached beyond the hiring and concept phase yet if I were to take a guess.

Although it *IS* time for a new Wolfenstein.

They said it was playable, I think they've basically ramped it up already with CD, it might not be coming until late 2023 earliest but I think we'll see Gameplay this year.

I love Wolfenstein, but it's time for Quake.

 

[Kenshin775]

ok so its not just MS first party. Cool. Hopefully we see Sonic Frontiers and get to see some gameplay. In my best case scenario I want to see Sonic move with great speed and momentum based physics in an open world. Throw in some parkour and acrobatic moves and Sonic Unleashed daytime like stages and I will be happy. Sonic is just too perfect for an open world game. Please don't mess this up Sega.

 

[mejin]

Show me gameplay from Starfield, Fable, and Perfect Dark and I'll be a happy man.

Gameplay should the focus cause they showed too many CGs last year. Dunno about Perfect Dark. It seems to be in trouble like that new IP from Rare.

 

[niilokin]

It's time.
