Published by Midas-touched indie publisher Annapurna Interactive, Cocoon is developed by new studio Geometric Interactive, which was co-founded by Limbo and Inside gameplay designer Jeppe Carlsen, and award-winning programmer and composer Jakob Schmid.
According to the studio, Cocoon “takes you on an adventure across worlds within worlds”, as players “master world-leaping mechanics to unravel a cosmic mystery”.
The game is a puzzle adventure, where players leap between worlds, with the twist being that each world exists within a small orb which is carried on the protagonist’s back.
Shaz from GL writes: “Xbox have announced that they’ll be returning to be a part of next week’s Game Awards. Here are a few things we could see revealed.”
-Gears 6,
-BG3 on gamepass (reason to why they won’t put a date)
-New acquisition
-mid Gen refresh console
-new controller
-GTA 6 will be on gamepass
-Elders scroll 6
GTA 6 launching on Gamepass would be cost ineffective for both Xbox and Rockstar. Big Budget third party don’t launch on Gamepass because they can’t be subsidized.
What would the cost of GT6 on gamepass be ? Over a billion would be the starting point is my guess
Microsoft would likely have to pay a lump sum based on projected sales, plus licensing and engagement fees to Rockstar. Additionally, GTA 6 uses a lot of licensed music, and some employees at Rockstar probably get bonuses based on sale figures.
Going by how many people viewed the news about a trailer it would cost even too much for MS. 2-3 million upfront would be my guess. Or they could simply do every person who downloads the GRA6 from GP Ms will pay them for a fully game sold share (usually console makers keep $10, retailer takes $10 and rest goes to publishers who than spreads it accordingly with bonuses and royalties)

Could we please stop with acquisitions. They can barely manage the talent they have. BG3 wouldn’t surprise me if it ends up on GP but it would cost MS a hefty amount
Dont blame him...all these acquisitions and yet theyve got little to nothing to show for it. Xbox gamers are starving for good console exclusives.
Lmao gta 6 won't be on gamepass. Elder scrolls 6 is YEARS away.
Don't think BG3 will be announced for gamepass, but it wouldn't shock me.
They can't sell the consoles they are already making , a new refresh of console would be silly.
Gta6 on gamepass is not gonna happen unless MS buys rockstar, they have said themselves they won't ever be putting new release games on gamepass because it makes no sense to them financially.
Anything can be on GamePass if it’s paid for. But as you mentioned I don’t think Take 2 would be willing to sell Rockstar or the GTA IP. If a gamepass deal occurs, I’d question if 2k would have a physical release on xbox at that point
Nope, Sony will have marketing rights to GTA 6 plus PC will have to wait 12 months before getting to play.
And tomorrow I'm going to win the lottery. Do you really think they'll be bringing out a new console with all the issues they already have with 2 different power consoles? And if BG3 was out day one I'd agree it could be a gamepass coup as that'd make people more inclined to choose Xbox as a console. But it's been out 4 months, most who were hyped for it have already bought it on PC or PS5. And I'd really doubt Rockstar will be doing Xbox favours with regards to GTA considering the majority of their profit is on the PS side and I doubt we'll see any ES6 footage for at least 2 years.
Perfect Dark Gameplay
Fable Gameplay
Gears announcement
Hellblade 2 combat gameplay
Those are my top on wish to see.
Anything from other recently purchased studios wont feel as great knowing MS just took them away from other platforms forever.
What I hope not to see is more acqusitions...
I just want exclusives that will make me say damn I need to buy an Xbox for this.
Have been waiting for this game for a long time ...
