Fans of the Xbox ecosystem have been waiting for the arrival of the month of June for a long time. The reason? the celebration of Xbox Games Showcase and the Starfield Directwhich will be the great joint event of the year between Microsoft and Bethesda and which will excite us with dozens of game announcements that we should be able to enjoy in the coming months in the best of cases or years in the most pessimistic, although the rumors don’t stop flowing.
That is why today, a few days before the Xbox Games Showcase and the Starfield Direct take place, we ask ourselves the big question: What can Xbox users expect from these events? The answer is clear: games, many gamess. But if you want to join us in the next few lines, we will try to take out the scalpel and dig a little deeper. What games? What companies? What is the most and least likely? Let’s go there.
What to expect from the Xbox Games Showcase and Starfield Direct?
Let’s start with the most obvious. Starfield will be the great protagonist of his own event, so knowing many more details about the first new Bethesda IP in more than two decades will be one of the things we can enjoy this Sunday. Starfield already has a release date, so that is not a question that we should clear up, but we do want to see more gameplay than show in detail exploration, combatthe customization of the ship, the type of missions or the interaction with other characters.
As for the Xbox Games Showcase, the presence of the new Forza Motorsport It is sung, since the Turn 10 game is scheduled to be launched this year on a date yet to be determined. We will have indies, third parties and a lot of Game Pass presencethat’s for sure (although Phil Spencer has already assured that he will not make the mistake of promising games for the next twelve months since the last time it did not go as expected).
But let’s enter the field of speculation and prediction, the most interesting of all. Of all the great Xbox exclusives already announced, the ones that seem closest in time are Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, Contraband and Avowed, from Ninja Theory, Avalanche and Obsidian respectively. It is to be expected that these three titles will be present at the Xbox Games Showcase, while another highly anticipated one such as STALKER 2: Hearts of Chornobyl It remains unknown due to the situation in the country of origin of its creators, Ukraine. Going even further when it comes to unpredictability, the reboot of Fable, Everwild or Perfect Dark They are highly anticipated by fans, but their presence is uncertain.
A few years ago Machine Games too announced its own Indiana Jones game, seeing it would be great news. State of Decay 3 is another one of those titles that doesn’t seem close, but you shouldn’t lose sight of. Last but not least, inXile is waiting to announce its new projectwhile The Coalition It hasn’t released a game in four years (since Gears 5) and it would be a good time for a public comeback. The last unknown is 343 Industries. After the disappointing premiere of Halo Infinite and the subsequent wave of layoffs and restructuring Within the company, it remains to be seen what his next game will be.
