Xbox Games Showcase returns in June followed by Gears E-Day Direct

Microsoft has confirmed its plans for the summer Xbox Games Showcase. There will once again be a day of announcements in June, followed by a special Direct presentation on Gears E-Day, the latest game in the Gears of War franchise. 

The showcase, announced by newly appointed Xbox CEO, Asha Sharma, will happen on June 7th starting at 10AM PT. As this is the summer showcase, most featured games are likely to be kept secret until the event happens, but at the very least, Gears E-Day will be a major focus this Summer.

Xbox has a big year ahead for first-party content. The year began with the latest expansion for World of Warcraft and will end with the latest game in the Call of Duty franchise. In between all of that, Microsoft is slotting in Forza Horizon 6, Halo: Campaign Evolved, Fable and Gears E-Day.

Other long-announced games like State of Decay 3 or Clockwork Revolution could also feasably get an update, although with how busy the release calendar is already, I wouldn't be surprised if both of those games were saved for next year.

KitGuru Says: Is there anything you are hoping to see during the Xbox showcase this year?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
