Microsoft kickstartede denne generation med at vise et hav af CG teasere, der godt nok bekræftede hvad deres mange studier arbejdede på, men som ikke blev fulgt op med mere konkret information. Denne gang fik vi mere info om nogle af disse, men vi mangler fortsat Perfect Dark og State of Decay 3.
I et interview ovre hos Giant Bomb fortæller Xbox Game Studios-chef Matt Booty, at netop disse to spil er planlagt til at blive fremvist indenfor de næste 18 måneder, og med mulig lancering i 2025. Desuden siger han "games" hos The Initiative, som kunne insinuerer at de arbejder på adskillige projekter:
"As I think ahead even as we get into 2025, we've seen builds of games at The Initiative, I know, just because [Undead Labs] are there in Seattle, what's going on with State of Decay 3. We've seen these things. So as I look ahead to the next 18 months in terms of what we're going to be able to show and deliver and do that kind of gameplay [reveal], I'm cautiously confident. Because the teams are hard at work, and they get that that's kind of the bar now, which is, 'let's show it, let's show up with gameplay and do a deeper dive when we show up.'"
Det skal dog siges, at selvom at Booty siger at det er forventningen at studier tropper op med gameplay, så gjorde Microsoft det ikke med Fable, South of Midnight eller Senua's Saga: Hellblade II i år, så måske tag det med et gran salt.
