Next Xbox launch event is coming soon
Since its appearance at the Tokyo Game Show, Xbox has maintained a conspicuous silence on hosting any substantial events. However, as divulged by the official news portal, Xbox Wire, the gaming giant is poised to orchestrate a new unveil on October 25, at 10 am PT (1 pm ET / 6 pm BST), christened ‘Xbox Partner Preview’.
The nomenclature itself subtly hints that this event isn’t singularly centered around first-party studios, but is an eclectic showcase encompassing collaborations with third-party studios. Anticipated revelations include projects from the acclaimed Ryu ga Gotoku Studio, Remedy Entertainment, and Wildcard Studio, accompanied by an array of indie gems. Xbox has accentuated that the combined duration of trailers and gameplay snippets will span an engrossing 20 minutes.
In alluding to the aforementioned studios that are no strangers to the ardent gaming community, Xbox tantalizingly teased some highlights. Aficionados can anticipate insights into “Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth“, the launch trailer for “Alan Wake 2“, the inaugural gameplay trailer for “ARK: Survival Ascended,” and updates pertaining to “Dungeons of Hinterberg“.
This global spectacle will be streamed live across Xbox’s channels, accompanied by an array of subtitles, including both Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
Worth a tangential mention, Xbox explicitly clarified at the commencement of their announcement that the event shall remain devoid of any discourse related to the Activision Blizzard acquisition. Thus, the enigmatic question of when the “Call of Duty” series and various Blizzard titles might grace the Xbox Game Pass remains unanswered, awaiting further elucidation from Xbox.
