Microsoft just wrapped Wednesday’s Xbox Developer Direct, but it’s already teasing another big presentation to come:
Our teams are working hard and look forward to sharing even more of what is next for our fans when we return to Los Angeles for our yearly Showcase this summer.
That could suggest a show in the June-ish timeframe like last year, perhaps around Summer Game Fest (June 8th) or this year’s revitalized E3 (June 13th through 16th). And there’s a standalone Starfield show in the works, too.
The show, which will cover games like Redfall, Forza Motorsport, and Minecraft Legends, starts at 3PM ET / 12PM PT. We’ve got the details on how to watch it right here, and you can also already hang out on the YouTube stream ahead of showtime.
