Summer Game Fest 2025 is well underway, and if there’s one event from the weekend that everyone’s sure to be talking about, it’s the Xbox Games Showcase. The livestream is scheduled for Sunday, June 8 at 1:00PM ET (10:00AM PT), and you can tune into it on the Xbox YouTube channel or Twitch, where ASL interpretation will be provided. Immediately after the Xbox showcase, there will be a separate presentation dedicated entirely to The Outer Worlds 2. You can watch both the Xbox Games Showcase and The Outer Worlds 2 Direct using the embedded stream below when it goes live. Our reporters on the ground, Jessica Conditt and Mat Smith, will be giving live updates in our liveblog below.
Last year’s showcase brought us news about the upcoming Fable reboot (since delayed until 2026), the next entry in the Gears of War series, Gears of War: E-Day, the recently released Doom: The Dark Ages and much more. We may hear some fresh updates about those first two titles on Sunday, and possibly more about others like Everwild, State of Decay 3, Hideo Kojima’s OD and Contraband. And of course, some new titles are likely to make their debut too.
You can catch up here on everything we’ve seen at Summer Game Fest 2025, and follow along when the event begins for our on-the-ground coverage.
Live46 updates
Next world premiere? A hotel… musical?
The trailer shows a woman in an orange space suit attempting to survive on an icy alien planet and find her companion. It’s called Aphelion, coming 2026.
Don’t Nod, the studio best known for Life is Strange, is making a realistic, third-person, 3D sci-fi action game. Dang, that’s pretty neat.
This ESO teaser seems be pushing the notion of making your own story and tale within the Elder Scrolls universe — a new season lands June 18
World premiere, the booming announcer voice says.
Every Xbox show needs an Elder Scrolls Online break, and now is that time.
Hell yeah, Bloober Team time. This is the studio that did the fabulous Silent Hill 2 remake for Konami recently, and they’re working on this Dead Space-esque horror shooter, Cronos: The New Dawn. Coming fall 2025. Hot.
Grounded 2 is coming July 29, surprise!
One of those studios is Obsidian, and they’re back with a new Grounded game!
Xbox Game Studios head Matt Booty is here now to talk about how much Microsoft loves all of the studios it owns.
Only Xbox could take a studio renowned for stunningly well-written RPGs and end up with an FPS.
Last time we wrote about this? 2023.
This looks… really cool? I did not know what to expect out of inXile when it comes to FPS games, but I’m digging the look of Clockwork Revolution.
Clockwork Revolution is a steampunky RPG with time travel, guns and realistic pants-peeing action, if this latest trailer is anything to go by.
It’s kinda unclear what kind of game Clockwork Revolution will be, although expect discussion trees, shenanigans and violence.
Clockwork Revolution is next up! From inXile Entertainment, the Wasteland studio.
Beast of Reincarnation is coming in 2026, and it looks like a beautiful action game.
This next trailer comes from Game Freak but it’s… not Pokemon.
