Microsoft
is
officially
holding
its
big
Xbox
summer
showcase
on
June
9th,
as
The
Verge
reported
earlier
this
month.
The
showcase
will
air
on
Sunday,
June
9th,
at
10AM
PT
/
1PM
ET
/
6PM
UK
and
will
include
a
deep
dive
into
the
next
installment
of
Call
of
Duty
after
the
main
show
ends.
Microsoft
is
only
teasing
the
Call
of
Duty
Direct
as
“the
next
installment
of
a
beloved
franchise,”
but
sources
familiar
with
the
company’s
plans
tell
me
that
this
is
indeed
Call
of
Duty.
This
will
be
the
first
Xbox
showcase
featuring
games
across
Activision
Blizzard,
Bethesda,
and
Microsoft’s
Xbox
Game
Studios.
I
understand
Microsoft
is
currently
planning
to
announce
a
new Gears
of
War game
during
the
show.
The
showcase
will
also
include
a
number
of
release
dates
for
upcoming
Xbox
games
like Microsoft
Flight
Simulator
2024, Avowed, and
Indiana
Jones
and
the
Great
Circle.
We’ll
likely
get
a
date
on
when
the
big
Shattered
Space
expansion
is
coming
to
Starfield.
Todd
Howard
recently
revealed
it’s
due
in
the
fall,
and
I
understand
Bethesda
is
currently
targeting
September.
Activision
is
targeting
the
next
Call
of
Duty
for
late
October,
with
Avowed
and
Microsoft
Flight
Simulator
2024
likely
to
follow
in
November
and
Indiana
Jones
in
December.
Microsoft
is
supposed
to
have
a
lot
of
games
to
show
this
year,
more
than
the
2023
showcase.
We
should
expect
to
hear
how
the
2025
lineup
is
looking,
with
some
launch
dates
for
some
anticipated
Xbox
games.
