Tomorrow at 1pm EST is Microsoft's summer game showcase. Anyone have any bold predictions? Praying for something that has likely no chance of being shown?

Would be great to get a discussion thread up sometime tomorrow.

My boldest prediction: Silksong release date.

My boldest prediction: Atlus is going to announce a Persona 3 remake on the Microsoft showcase. That would never happen.

Alternatively, something that's actually never happening but I'll hold out hope for until I'm six feet under - Scalebound back in development.

There's also no way a Persona 5 Tactics game will get announced either

Fable gameplay and Q1 24 release date.

My prediction for the Xbox Games Showcase:
(Lets see how many I get right or wrong)

  1. Forza Motorsport (Showing gameplay, announcing a release date)
  2. Bethseda's Indiana Jones (Showing gameplay)
  3. Some mention of Redfall and its new update
  4. Avowed (Gameplay and a rough release date)
  5. Minecraft (Showing a new update or ray tracing)
  6. Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 (Showing gameplay)
  7. Forza Horizon 5 (Possibly a third expansion)
  8. Sea of Theives (Showing a new season and brand deal potentially)
  9. Halo Infinite (Showing their new Battle Royale based gamemode)
  10. Hideo Kojima Game (Some game Hideo has worked on for Xbox)
  11. Fable (Showing some gameplay)
  12. Starfield (Obviously will be shown)
  13. Gears 6 (New game shown and teased)
  14. Avowed (Possibly showing gameplay)
  15. Hollow Knight: Silksong (Gameplay)
  16. Contraband (Gameplay)
  17. State Of Decay 3 (Gameplay)
  18. Elder Scrolls 6 (Possibly mentioned, maybe some gameplay if we are lucky)
  19. New game announcement by Compulsion Games
  20. New game announcement by Inxile Entertainment
  21. Everwild (Some gameplay)
  22. Some mention of Fallout (Most likely a remaster)
  23. HI-FI Rush: New DLC

It's hard to get excited about Microsoft's game offerings these days as it feels like it's been a while since they've had a big win on the game side of things. If a had to predict anything it would be that MS doesn't come out with anything to surprising, they keep it simple and focus on building hype for Starfield.

Which, btw, I hope turns out great both because Xbox needs a win and no game since Skyrim has scratched that same gaming itch for me, so I'm really counting on Bethesda coming through.

Redfall 2 announcement ;^)

Tough to say though. Definitely has the potential to be the biggest one of these events over the past little bit as you have to figure Microsoft is in swing for the fences mode. If they have anything, now is the time to show it and push it hard. Would be nice to see something about Fable but that's been kind of rumored/expected. There's a lot of stuff that could be cooking in all those studios that they own, anything could happen.

Boldest prediction would be a Banjo Kazooie remake or Banjo Threeie.

[-] Ignacio@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

An extended trailer for The Elder Scrolls 6, and a preview teaser for Fallout 5.

[-] BigVault@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Hoping for a lot more on Forza Motorsport for PC.
Between that and Starfield, any surprises that may pop up are a bonus.

[-] Banana@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Forza has the potential to be the best selling game on Xbox.
