The Xbox Games Showcase will also likely bring an update on Gears of War: E-Day, which was revealed at last year’s showcase.We could get an announcement from Playground Games’ Fable, which has been delayed to 2026.

Bethesda, too, could turn up at the event, but expecting an announcement on The Elder Scrolls 6 would perhaps be wishful thinking.The Xbox Games Showcase will immediately be followed by a direct presentation on Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds 2, where the studio will deep dive into the upcoming RPG, revealing new gameplay, details and developer insights.
