With Geoff Keighley only vaguely threatening everyone with an entire summer of his face at the moment, Xbox Games Showcase 2023 could be the foremost showcase of the season. But what's in-store?
October is almost upon us and your wallets are in danger! Spider-Man 2, Alan Wake 2, Super Mario Wonder, and more on the way! We pick the most interesting October games, from AAA to indie, so you can make sense of everything coming out.
I'll be getting foam stars because it's freSh and original which is needed now because of all the remakes and copycat games. I've never Seen anything like it and it's lookS like a lot of fun
Probably same
Would have gotten Alan Wake 2 but I'll wait for a physical version...it will come eventually.
Already have SM2 ordered and FM installed. Gonna be a good birthday month for me.
Mirage, Wonder & Front Mission 2 for me. I'm waiting on to see how that PS5 refresh turns out before buying a PS5 so no sense in getting Spider-Man 2 for me right now.
Would love to get a look at the new Indiana Jones game. Also see the progress on Avowed and see what they are doing with Fable. That's what I'm hoping for. Would also like to see what Hellblade 2 gameplay looks like. First one was really lacking in that department.
From the article:
1. Forza Motorsport - Most definitely.
2. Fable - Reveal, gameplay and release window/date very likely
3. Contraband - Game was announced in 2021. Reveal and gameplay unlikely.
4. State of Decay 3 - Reveal and Gameplay chances are 60%
5. Hellblade II - New gameplay and release window/date very likely
6. Shocking Game Pass News - Most definitely
7. Compulsion’s Project Midnight - Announcement/Reveal and gameplay chances are 70%
8. Something Gears Related - - Announcement/Reveal and gameplay chances are 60%
9. A New Acquisition/Third-Party Deal - Megaton! Depends on ABK´s deal approval or block.
10. The Elder Scrolls VI - Highly unlikely since Bethesda will be focusing on Starfield.
Personally I want more news, infos, reveals, updates and gameplay for Avowed, Indiana jones, Perfect Dark, Project Mara, Everwild, Project Dragon and Project Cobalt.
Everything from 2020 shows. I'll do a break down of not all but most of the teams. Including rumors things I've read and the chance we'll see it based off timelines of development.
Fable- Said to be releasing late 2024. It's been too long we'll have to see something. The game is in playable state as well. The world, some gameplay and dea of what the games about. 60% chance we'll see it
State Of Decay 3- The studio has been expanding since the acquisition in 2018. Opening up a bigger office in Florida and said to be working on new animation techniques. Just like Fable I also think we'll see something. The world, quick cuts of gameplay though it could be a further out. 54% we'll see gameplay
Compulsion games- The game is said to be in a playable state since late 2021. There's a high chance we'll get gameplay and a release date. 75% we'll see it.
Contraband- haven't heard much about this one. I heard some stuff like it was suppose to release last year. They're trying to "find the fun" I don't have too much hope for this game tbh. Regardless I think we'll definitely see gameplay and release date by now. 90% we'll see it.
Rare- another one I don't know much about. They've been radio silent. The last thing we've heard was they rebooted the game awhile ago. Who n. Know how far along they are. 30% we'll see anything though we could be surprised.
The Initiative/CD- The game is said to be not as priority as they're working on The New Tombraider. In fact Tombraider is said be coming out first then Perfect Dark afterwords. 20% chance we'll see it. I just don't know how far along they are plus the game isn't priority in CD.
The Coalition- They took a hiatus to learn Unreal Engine 5 and are now working on Gears 6. Though it's early in development I wouldn't expect anything. Maybe the rumored Marcus Fenix collection? Anyway 2% we'll see Gears 6.
Ninja Theory- They said they were done with Mocap late last year. Rumors of a late 2023 release even Phil alluded to it in the interview. 99% chance of gameplay
Obsidian- they rebooted the game in 2020 and again 2021 saying they were doing too much and the game was doing many different things so they wanted to bunker down and focus on what it does right and we'll. They also changed directors a few times. Which is good because they're able to speed up and accelerate development. They're in good shape. 90% we'll see gameplay. 2024 release.
Indiana Jones- they announced the game in early 2021. They could show something in engine but it's way too early for anything. 5% we'll see anything.
Stalker 2- They said they're ready for this year to release but I dunno tbh. We'll definitely see gameplay however I hope the team is well and healthy more importantly. 80% we'll see gameplay.
nXile- project Cobalt said to be working on steam punk first person role playing game. I think we'll something in engine or at worst a CG trailer with a official title. 70% chance we'll see something.
Forza 8- of course. 100% gameplay
Starfield- with everything riding on this title now after the huge flop thats Redfall the expectations are so high it's unrealistic. Regardless 100% chance of gameplay and more. Starfield console controller everything. That's an obvious on.
I think MS needs to shadow drop something maybe 1 or 2 games that were suppose to release this year. That would be in the step in the right direction for the company.
I don’t know if anyone who isn’t annoyed by keighley. Batman is deeeeeaaaaad
More gameplay for the games which are shown and actually running on Xbox series X not PC. Please be transparent and stop messing up this brand
