The long-awaited moment is approaching. Microsoft has everything ready to make us vibrate with a new edition of its annual event, since we have to enjoy the Xbox Games Showcase 2024. It will be on Sunday, June 9, at 7:00 p.m. CEST when we can join the broadcast that will reveal the cards that the company has been keeping. It will be practically two hours of show where we are going to enjoy like sparrows in the mud.
Obviously, there will be a direct focus on the exclusive titles that will land on Xbox and PC consoles, but on this occasion the Activision Blizzard element. The purchase of the company is already effective, so its main assets will come into play to dazzle us. To be clear about the alignment of stars, we are going to review what we can expect during the conference.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Perhaps the biggest hit of the entire show, and not so much because of the FPS itself, but because of what its appearance at the gala means. Microsoft has confirmed that the popular delivery will enter directly from day one on Xbox Game Pass, which represents a radical change of direction in the industry. So much so that we will have an exclusive section after the Xbox Games Showcase 2024 itself to talk in depth about the war title.
Starfield: Shattered Space
It is surprising, but there is only one video game confirmed for the event in full force. However, we can get an idea of what’s coming by taking a look at the Bethesda and Xbox Game Studios catalog. The long-awaited Starfield expansion is a clear candidate to appear during the broadcast, so players of the space RPG
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Unmissable appointment. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has every chance to shine once again, since we barely have a trailer for the project. MachineGames. With a first-person perspective we will live the adventures of the most famous archaeologist in the world who, as always, will try to put an end to the Nazis’ plans. Whips, shots and stunts for a work that will arrive in 2024, so we need a release date.
Avowed
Obsidian continues working to offer us an exquisite RPG set in the fictional world of Eora, which is well known to lovers of the franchise. Pillars of Eternity. First-person action and fantasy that looks like a scandal, being able to choose our own type of character, decide the direction of the story and discover absolutely fascinating corners. The only thing left to resolve is the day in 2024 when we can start playing Avowed.
DOOM: The Dark Ages
Time for the leaks and in this case, the important ones. As journalist Tom Henderson has learned, we will have the revelation of a new installment of the DOOM saga. The title that id Software will use is DOOM: The Dark Ages and it will take the Doomslayer to a dark time with medieval inspiration, so we can already imagine any kind of fantasy. Either way, we’re in for some demonic shots.
Gears of War 6
The legendary Microsoft franchise looks like it will return in style. Gears of War 6 It will be the first installment that we see from the Marcus Fenix universe since 2019 and the truth is that there is a desire to revitalize the saga. Not too many details are known, but there are several insiders who have pointed in the same direction: we will see amazing shots from The Coalition saga.
Fable
From The Verge suggest that there is a good chance that we will see Fable during the Xbox Games Showcase 2024. It would not be surprising, just as it would not be surprising if Playground Games
Towerborne
In the same sense, the gaze is directed towards Towerbone, the Stoic title sponsored by Xbox Game Studios. The cooperative action adventure looks outrageous thanks to its visuals and is guaranteed quality, thanks to the fact that it bears the seal of the parents of The Banner Saga trilogy. We may very well have news about a very promising project.
South of Midnight
The new of Compulsion Games It is disturbing, since the only trailer we have been able to see so far has left us wanting more. Action and adventure are guaranteed in a work that has not revealed gameplay, but we do know that it will mix the mythology of the American deep south with ancestral powers. We need to see it again.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
No, it is not a free update, or anything like that. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 It will be the new release of Asobo Studio, completely from scratch, which translates into raising the graphic bar of the industry. Flying around the globe is a joy and doing it with practically any aerial gadget you can imagine, even more so.
Promised and promising updates
- Age of Mythology: Retold. El remake del RTS de 2002will show us its virtues before confirming its release date for PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S in 2024.
- Diablo IV – Vessel of Hatred. The long-awaited expansion of the Blizzard title is just around the corner, so it is time for the developer to reveal what awaits us in Santuario.
- World of Warcraft: The War Within. El MMORPG the Blizzard It also needs to be fed with content, so we want to see more about the warrior bands, events and challenges to overcome.
Usual suspects and an exciting future
Here we enter the realm of speculation, but clinging to video games that exist and need to return to the fore after remaining in the dark for too long. Perfect Dark has been absolutely missing in action since that cinematic in 2020, so the cyberpunk adventure of The Initiative It must be left so that we can breathe easy. The same goes for State of Decay 3, which has remained silent for four years and Undead Labs has not commented.
Clockwork Revolution, Inxile’s title, should appear to dazzle again with its first-person steampunk proposal. Another missing in action is Contrabandthe Avalanche Studios project announced in 2021 and which will seek to transport us to a cooperative paradise full of smugglers set in the fictional world of Bayan in the 70s. On the other hand, Everwild looked very good… five years ago.
Rare’s work is still fallow and we need to know what they are cooking behind the scenes. All in all, it is clear that Microsoft will want to take advantage of the opportunity of Xbox Games Showcase 2024 to detail their future plans and continue betting very, very strongly on Xbox Game Pass. A good number of the video games that we see during the gala will appear on the subscription service, either at launch or with a later appearance.
In turn, the acquaintance eXtas1 filter He assures that it is very possible that portable Xbox hardware will be shown, which would be a real hit and would fit with some statements made by Phil Spencer. As if that were not enough, he himself has dropped that Hollow Knight: Silksong will finally walk before us. Will there be any mention of releases on PS5 and Nintendo Switch? There is very little left to know the answer and there is always room for the most unexpected surprises.
