The Xbox Games Showcase, available for on-demand viewing, brought back fan-favorite series like Gears of War: E-Day and Doom: The Dark Ages. It also offered fresh glimpses into Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Perfect Dark, State of Decay 3, South of Midnight, Avowed, and more. The showcase also announced the release date for The War Within, the upcoming expansion for World of Warcraft.
The first Showcase, featuring games from our portfolio of studios across Activision, Blizzard, Bethesda, and Xbox Game Studios, as well as our third-party partners, treated players to premieres and updates for a multitude of games, many of which will be accessible on Game Pass.
From our partners, there was a world-premiere look at gameplay from AC: Shadows, an introduction to future party members in the eagerly awaited Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and debuts and updates from upcoming gems like Mixtape, Winter Burrow, and Expedition 33, among others.
Players also got a sneak peek at the gameplay reveal of the brand-new Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. For a more in-depth look, you can view the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct.
Additionally, we unveiled three new Xbox Series X|S console options that will join our current lineup this holiday season in select markets. We’ll share market availability and regional Estimated Retail Pricing (ERP) when we share preorder details in the coming months.
