Redfall

The first-person co-op FPS Redfall was the first to be shown off in the event. Fresh off news that it's going to be delayed alongside Starfield (more on this game later), Redfall will put as much as four players at the same time battling vampires. It has been confirmed as a Day One Release on Xbox Game Pass, though there's no release date yet from Arkane.

Hollow Knight: Silksong

Another Day One title for Game Pass, SIlksong is a platformer and sequel to indie darling Hollow Knight. New gameplay for it was shown, though there's also no release date yet - even if it was announced way back in 2019.

High On Life

A first-person shooter from Rick and Morty Justin Roiland, High On Life puts you in a very cartoony world where guns talk, writes Eurogamer. It is also a Day One title for Game Pass, and it looks pretty darn amazing with all the very obvious Rick and Morty vibes it gives off. Even Roiland himself voices the gun in the gameplay reveal:

A Plague Tale: Requiem

A direct sequel to the modern cult classic A Plague Tale: Innocence, Requiem showed off a few new footage after first appearing at the Tribeca Games Spotlight days before the Xbox and Bethesda showcase. It has been confirmed for this year as another day one Game Pass release.

Forza Motorsport

One might notice that this is not a numbered Forza Motorsport release. The last Forza Motorsport game was FM7, which was released way back in 2017. The fact that the new one doesn't have a number 8 in it could point to a reboot of sorts, but one could only confirm once the game is out on springtime next year.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Update

Xbox is continuing its support of the acclaimed flight sim with a new expanded edition featuring helicopters, which is scheduled to release this November. The additions are part of the 40th anniversary celebration of the franchise as a whole.

Overwatch 2

Considering how Microsoft could soon fully own Activision Blizzard, having Overwatch 2 in the Xbox and Bethesda showcase isn't exactly a surprise. This time around, though, the game finally has a freaking release date: October 4th as a free-to-play, early access game. It also features another new hero: the Junker Queen. Oh, did we tell you that Bastion can now move in turret mode? Yikes.

Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle And Fallout 76's The Pitt

The new expansion for Elder Scrolls Online, titled High Isle, is due in late June. This expansion for ESO is coming ahead of Fallout 76's own expansion, titled The Pitt, which is due on September. Both expansions will give players brand-new areas to explore and new content to sink their teeth in.

Diablo IV

Diablo IV was finally revealed with a cinematic trailer, which announces the latest confirmed class in the game: the Necromancer. According to GameSpot, the game's story features the return of the demon Lilith - though no other details were shared beyond that. It will come in 2023.

Persona Series Coming To Xbox

For so long, the Persona series of JRPGs have been a PlayStation exclusive. But as per the Xbox and Bethesda showcase, it will finally be gracing Xbox consoles in a big way. Fans will get Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 5 Royal starting October 21st with the latter. 3 and 4 will come next year, and all of them will be on Game Pass.

Hide Kojima's Xbox Deal

After being long-rumored, the legendary game developer's deal with Microsoft and Xbox is now official. Kojima announced that he's partnered with the gaming industry giant to basically make the game of his dreams, which will be powered by the company's cloud tech.

Ark 2

The sequel to the original Ark: Survival Evolved, Ark 2 will feature Hollywood A-lister Vin Diesel and was announced with an in-engine trailer - confirmed to be running on Unreal Engine 5. It will come out in 2023.
