Xbox Games Showcase 2025: all the news and trailers
It's looking like another busy summer of gaming news: Microsoft just announced its next Xbox Games Showcase livestream, which will take place on June 8th at 1PM ET. The company says that the event will include 'a look at upcoming titles from across our first-party studios, in addition to incredible new titles from our third-party partners across the globe.' And after the event wraps up there will be a second stream focused entirely on The Outer Worlds 2, which is due to launch later this year. Last year's showcase included major announcements covering games like Perfect Dark, Doom: The Dark Ages, and Starfield. In addition to The Outer Worlds sequel, the 2025 edition will likely include more about the next Call of Duty and other holiday games; though we probably won't see much, if anything, of Fable, which has been delayed to 2026. Doom: The Dark Ages, meanwhile, launches in May, so maybe we'll hear about future updates or expansions for id's dark fantasy shooter.
