E3 2022 might have been canceled, but several companies have stepped up to the plate to give audiences their fill of gaming news. Arguably the best of them all was Microsoft, which recently saw its second-ever Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase come to an end.
For a little over and hour and a half (95 minutes, to be precise), Microsoft showcased more than 30 games that are coming to the Xbox consoles and/or the PC as well as the Game Pass in the next 12 months. The best part here is that Microsoft actually used in-game footage for all the games, resulting in a breathtaking showcase that might have left you panting trying to keep up with everything that was announced.
Redfall and Starfield, which were delayed to 2023, might have bookended the non-E3 event, but several other games were part of the showcase as well.
Here is a complete list of everything announced at the Xbox Bethesda Games Showcase, as well as their release dates or windows: Redfall - first half of 2023 Hollow Knight: Silksong High on Life - October 2022 Riot Games partnership for Game Pass subscribers - Winter 2022 A Plague Tale: Requiem - late 2022 Forza Motorsport - spring 2023 Microsoft Flight Simulator (4oth Anniversary) Overwatch 2 - October 4 ARA: History Untold Fallout 76: The Pitt Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels - July 19 Ark 2 - 2023 Scorn - October 21 Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn - early 2023 Minecraft: Legends - early 2023 Lightyear Frontier - spring 2023 Gunfire Reborn - October 2022 The Last Case of Benedict Fox - spring 2023 As Dusk Falls - July 19 Naraka: Bladepoint - June 23 Pentiment - November 2022 Grounded - September 2022 Ereban Shadow Legacy - 2023 Diablo IV - 2023 Sea of Thieves: Season Seven - July 21 Ravenlock Cocoon - 2023 Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty - early 2023 Persona 3, 4, and 5 Hideo Kojima's "secret" Xbox project Starfield - early 2023 Ark 2 will feature none other than Vin Diesel.
