Xbox has revealed that the next Xbox Games Showcase will take place on June 8, 2025, followed by The Outer Worlds 2 Direct. The event will focus on the future of Xbox’s first-party and third-party game lineup.
Xbox describes both upcoming events as follows:
It all begins with our annual Xbox Games Showcase, bringing you 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. This year, the show will be digital-only – our livestream will bring you everything you’ll need to know about what’s next for Xbox, no matter where in the world you’re watching.
Immediately following Showcase, The Outer Worlds 2 Direct will bring you inside the walls of Obsidian Entertainment, revealing new gameplay, details, and developer insights, straight from the people making the sequel to the award-winning, first-person sci-fi RPG.
There will likely be updates on Perfect Dark, Fable, State of Decay 3, Gears of War: E-Day, as well as some brand-new announcements pertaining to the future of the studio. Xbox’s next game, Doom: The Dark Ages, will release on May 15 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The PlayStation Store describes the game as follows:
DOOM: The Dark Ages is the prequel to the critically acclaimed DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal that tells an epic cinematic story worthy of the DOOM Slayer’s legend. In this third installment of the modern DOOM series, players will step into the blood-stained boots of the DOOM Slayer, in this never-before-seen dark and sinister medieval war against Hell.
The next Xbox Games Showcase, as well as The Outer Worlds 2 Direct, will take place on June 8 at 1 PM EDT.
