We know that summer 2024 will still be a great time for video games. And among the important players we also find Xbox, which has just lifted the veil on its big event with a surprise!
Microsoft is preparing for its big annual summer event, the Xbox Games Showcase, which will take place on June 9th. It is now confirmed. The event, highly anticipated by fans and industry players, will be broadcast live at 7:00 p.m. (French time).

An Xbox showcase with a surprise
Although Microsoft only mentioned the upcoming version of a popular franchise to keep something mysterious, sources familiar with the matter confirm that it is indeed Call of Duty. This is mainly reported by the very serious ones The edge. This special segment, called Call of Duty Direct, promises a deep dive into what’s new in this highly anticipated FPS. Which as a reminder (for now) is called Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War.
This year’s Xbox Games Showcase is particularly notable because it is the first time that games from all major Microsoft studios will be presented together. Among the expected announcements, we are waiting for the reveal of a new Gears of War game. The release dates of other highly anticipated titles such as Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Avowed and Indiana Jones will also be announced. The latter is obviously one of the cornerstones of the presentation.
Additionally, it’s likely that Starfield’s new expansion, titled Shattered Space, will receive an official fall release date, with Bethesda aiming for a September release. Activision plans to release the next Call of Duty in late October, while Avowed and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 are expected to follow in November and Indiana Jones in December. Maybe we have a few surprises for the next The Elder Scrolls? Let’s wait and see.
