This lengthy look at gameplay in the world of Eora comes directly from Xbox itself and goes into some of the magical tools players will have at their disposal when embarking on their adventure later this year. Game Director Carrie Patel touched on these details during the interview, but the feature that might have fans the most excited is the promise that you will have the option to play in both first and third person.
Other details touched on in the presentation include a few colorful conversations with NPCs like Yatzli and Kai. Patel also teases some of the...

Dragon Age: The Veilguard won't have a full gameplay showcase until tomorrow, but BioWare just released a tiny sneak peek at in-game footage — its first ever — in the meantime.
You can watch the 20 seconds of gameplay below. In it, we see Rook, the name for the playable protagonist in The Veilguard, with Dragon Age mainstay Varric. "She's the best damn detective I've ever met," Varric is heard saying in the footage. "If she says she's got a lead on Solas, I believe her."
Solas, as fans know, is the former companion of the protagonist in Dragon Age: Inquisition who's actually the elven god Fen'Harel, or the Dread Wolf. As for who is it that might have a lead on him, we could already glean from yesterday's cinematic trailer reveal...

Capcom confirmed that Resident Evil 7: Biohazard will be released on July 2 on the iPhone 15 Pro series and Apple silicon-powered iPads and Macs. Additionally, the developer confirmed that Resident Evil 2 Remake is headed to the same Apple products and is "currently in development."

Bungie has teased Destiny 2 Codename Frontiers, coming at some point in 2025 during what will be the series’ 11th year.
Teased at the end of a new video detailing what to expect from The Final Shape expansion’s upcoming three episodes was a solitary image, below. It reveals Codename Frontiers, which we know is due out in 2025. Bungie did not say anything else about this mysterious update, but with the codename Frontiers, some fans are already speculating that it may involve taking players to planets beyond the Sol System.
Some had thought Bungie might have teased Destiny 3 based on tweets from one of its developers, but it looks like the wait for that game, should it exist, goes on.
The Final Shape brings to an end the overarching...
Doom: The Dark Ages promises a bold new take on the long-running shooter’s legacy. Revealed in a short but loud trailer as part of the Xbox Games Showcase, it features dragon riding, mech battles, and a much darker, more ‘metal’ visual palette. But those grimdark ideas aren't the only new elements, nor are they the most significant. For in the Doom Slayer’s left hand is a shield to protect him from demons. And in his right hand is a flail, the bludgeoning chain weapon of the middle ages. Yes, Doom’s going melee.
It must have been a challenge for developer Id Software to know where to go next after it had seemingly perfected the Doom formula with the deeply smart and relentlessly energetic Doom Eternal. The answer, of course, is to do...
EA has added new voice chat moderation features to Battlefield 2042 designed to promote more positive play within the game.
Battlefield 2042, like many competitive multiplayer games, suffers from some toxic behavior from players. These new features now live in the first-person shooter over two years after it launched aim to provide players with an easy way to report it.
In a post on EA’s help page, the company said voice chat moderation is used when reviewing reports of “harmful or offensive” voice chat, so its support teams can “action the reports appropriately.”
Here’s how it works: when you report a player, EA’s support team automatically receives a recording of the session you wish to report. Then, after evaluating the...
After the announcement of Gears of War: E-Day during the Xbox Games Showcase. some fans expressed concern that Microsoft and Gears developer The Coalition were walking away from the story set out in Gears 4 and the most recent game in the series, Gears 5.
Not so, according to Microsoft. In a post on Xbox Wire, Microsoft touched on the future of Gears, insisting “this isn’t the end of other ongoing stories in the Gears series.”
“The team is content with the stories told in Gears 4 and Gears 5 and is by no means abandoning them, but the collective passion for such an iconic origin story was simply too great to ignore,” Microsoft said. ”The story of E-Day and the origins of Marcus and Dom are such powerful, pivotal events that The...
A snippet of new information about Dragon Age: The Veilguard has emerged regarding the races players will be able to play as in the game.
In BioWare’s fantasy role-playing game, players assume the role of a protagonist called Rook they can customize. In already released promotional material for the game, we can see Rook as a Human. According to tweets from Bioware’s Mike Gamble, who is leading the next Mass Effect at the studio, you can also have your Rook be an Elf, Dwarf, or Qunari.
Another snippet of info from Gamble is confirmation that companion armor can be changed out, which is an important feature for fans.
BioWare’s Dragon Age: The Veilguard reveal leans heavily on the cast of seven companions who join Rook on their...
Black Ops 6’s single-player campaign requires a constant internet connection in a first for the Call of Duty series on console.
Following the shooter’s reveal during Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase and subsequent Call of Duty Direct, fans noticed that an Activision support page warned that all game modes, including campaign, need a continuous internet connection to play.
Why? According to Activision’s support page: “To deliver the highest-quality visuals while also reducing the game’s overall storage space on your hard drive, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will use texture streaming across all game modes.” An Activision spokesperson subsequently verified the explanation to IGN. Here’s the statement in full:
“To deliver the...
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will complete its currently announced roadmap, publisher Warner Bros. has confirmed to IGN.
After Rocksteady’s live service shooter flopped to the tune of $200 million, some players called into question Warner Bros.' support for the game and the prospect of additional content beyond the already released Season 1.
Players asked even tougher questions after a report from Bloomberg into Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s troubled development, with reporter Jason Schreier writing on X/Twitter Rocksteady was currently giving the game “some barebones support, definitely not as much as they’d originally planned.” According to Schreier, Rocksteady is helping out with a director’s cut of Warner...
After teasing that a brand-new update would arrive in Starfield later today, Bethesda Game Studios has officially released the June 2024 update for Starfield, which introduces the Creation Kit, new Trackers Alliance missions, and more.
In a new blog post, Bethesda has detailed all the new features coming into Starfield update 1.12.30.

Xbox boss Phil Spencer has addressed the recent closure of a number of studios at Microsoft's gaming business, insisting he has to make "hard decisions" to run a sustainable business.
Speaking to IGN's Ryan McCaffrey at IGN Live, Spencer briefly commented on the shock decision to shut Redfall developer Arkane Austin and Hi-Fi Rush developer Tango Gameworks as part of sweeping layoffs affecting some 1,900 staff.
"The closure of any team is hard obviously on the individuals there, hard on the team," Spencer said. "I haven't been talking publicly about this, because right now is the time for us to focus on the team and the individuals. It's obviously a decision that's very hard on them, and I want to make sure through severance and...
Xbox head Phil Spencer stopped by IGN Live for a chat following today's Xbox Showcase, talking about some of the biggest reveals and announcements. One of those was not only the reveal of Doom: The Dark Ages, but the announcement that it would be coming to PlayStation 5 as well.
Asked about the decision by IGN's Ryan McCaffrey, Spencer attributed the decision, at least partially, to id Software Studio Director Marty Stratton.
"Doom is definitely one of those franchises that has a history of so many platforms," Spencer explained. "It’s a franchise that I think everyone deserves to play. When I was in a meeting with Marty a couple years ago, I asked Marty what he wanted to do, and he said he wanted to sell it on all platforms. Simple...
Last time we checked in with Stormgate, the new RTS coming from a bunch of former Starcraft developers at Frost Giant Studios, we got to dig deep into the demonic Infernal Host faction, joining the determined Human Vanguard. Now, the third faction has been revealed, and they're a strong counterpoint both thematically and mechanically. The Celestial Armada consist of angelic artificial forms inhabited by the souls of a hyper-advanced alien race, and they play quite a bit differently from anything we've seen in an RTS like this so far.
The first time I loaded into a match as the Celestials, I wasn't even really sure what I was supposed to be doing. Instead of a main base building, they have a fully mobile Arcship, which can roam around...
Microsoft has signaled that Black Ops 6 will weigh in at an eye-watering 309.85 GB, making it potentially the biggest Call of Duty game ever in terms of how much storage space it will take up at launch.
The Black Ops 6 store page on Xbox.com states Black Ops 6’s approximate size is 309.85 GB. That’s for Xbox Series X and S, with sizes for the game on other platforms yet to be announced. While Call of Duty players are well used to huge install footprints for games in the series, and indeed the shooter franchise is now infamous for how much hard drive space it takes up, Black Ops 6 appears to beat them all.
Black Ops 6 will sit within Call of Duty HQ, Activision’s game launcher for all the current Call of Duty experiences, so it...
Frost Giant Studios took the time to announce a PC via Steam Early Access release date of August 13, 2024, for its sci-fi fantasy RTS, Stormgate, during this year’s PC Gaming Show.
The date arrived alongside a new trailer, a one-minute video also reveals that the game’s third faction is the Celestial Armada. It’s described as a “race of highly technologically advanced interstellar travelers” that seeks to challenge the Infernal Host faction for control of Earth.
Frost Giant says its playtesters have called the Celestial Armada the “most original RTS faction they’ve ever played.” You can dive into the details of this powerful new race here.
Stormgate is free-to-play but offers a trio of Early Access bundle deals for those looking to...
Black Ops 6 acts as a “fresh start for everyone,” developer Treyarch has confirmed.
2023's Modern Warfare 3 carried forward content from Modern Warfare 2 into the game. However, in Black Ops 6, fully revealed during Microsoft’s Xbox Games Showcase and Call of Duty Direct, only Black Ops 6 content will be available to use across Multiplayer and Zombies.
In an interview with IGN, Miles Leslie, associate creative director at Treyarch, said Black Ops 6 is “a fresh start.” This means that when Black Ops 6 comes out in October, players will not be playing Multiplayer and Zombies modes in the many and varied skins they’ve already bought for Modern Warfare 3 and Modern Warfare 2. Yes, that means you don't have to worry about killer clowns...
At the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase, Obsidian Entertainment released a new trailer for Avowed, and the developer confirmed that it will still be released sometime this year
The latest trailer is more cinematic than what we previously saw for the game, diving more into the story of Avowed and what players will be tasked with. "Explore the Living Lands, a mysterious island filled with adventure and danger," Avowed's story trailer YouTube description reads. "As an envoy of Aedyr, you are sent to investigate rumors of a spreading plague with a secret that threatens to destroy everything. Can you save the island and your soul from the forces threatening to tear them apart?"
In addition to more insight into Avowed's story, a new companion...
Nearly four years after the launch of Gears 5, The Coalition has officially revealed the next mainline Gears of War game with a brand-new trailer, and a title: Gears of War: E-Day.
You can watch the trailer below, which debuted during today's Xbox Showcase and shows younger versions of the series’ original heroes, Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago. No release date or window was revealed.

“It’s going to feel like a new Gears game, because that’s what it is,” Creative Director Matt Searcy said...
Microsoft has finally properly unveiled Treyarch’s Black Ops 6 as part of its Xbox Showcase event and subsequent Call of Duty Direct.
As rumored, Black Ops 6’s campaign is set in the early 1990s. Co-Call of Duty developer Raven Software has taken the lead on the campaign, which is set after the events of 2020’s Black Ops Cold War and tied to the 1980s flashbacks in 2012’s Black Ops 2. Publisher Activision described Black Ops 6’s single-player campaign as a spy thriller that revolves around unraveling a government conspiracy. Expect stealth gameplay mixed with the blockbuster action Call of Duty campaigns are known for, set in environments such as Russian Tundra, Middle Eastern desert, Southern Europe, and the U.S.
As we’ve seen from...
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is releasing later this year and it continues the story events from 2012’s Black Ops 2. The year is now 1991 and Adler is back and more determined than ever. I went to the Black Ops 6 summit to play some multiplayer and get the low down on campaign and Zombies details.
Campaign
The campaign for Black Ops 6 picks up after the events of Cold War and Black Ops 2. The official timeline was revealed to be Black Ops 1, Cold War, Black Ops 2, Black Ops 6, Black Ops 4, and Black Ops 3. Cold War takes place in 1981 while Black Ops 2 is set in 1989.
Sometime between then and 1991, where Black Ops 6 is set, a lot has changed for Adler. Unfortunately, some of his past squadmates have died (no spoilers here yet) and...

MachineGames revealed a new trailer for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle at today's Xbox Showcase, releasing sometime this year for Xbox Series X/S and PC.
We got a good look at a cinematic, showing Indy in - what else? - a sticky situation in the Himalayas, as some villains try to get him to give them a stone. Luckily, his companion, Gina, saves the day, handing them a grenade instead of the stone they so desperately want.
"From the hallowed halls of the Vatican and the sunken temples of Sukhothai to the pyramids of Egypt and the snowy peaks of the Himalayas, Indy’s latest journey will send him around the world in a race against time as he hunts down mysterious and powerful artifacts," a Bethesda blog post today reads. "But...
Today at the Xbox Games Showcase, Deck Nine revealed the newest entry in the Life Is Strange franchise. It's called Life Is Strange: Double Exposure, and it stars the main character of the original Life Is Strange, Max Caulfield. It's planned for release on October 29 of this year for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC.
In the trailer we saw today, we got a look at an older Max who still has strange powers. In this game, she's discovered she has the ability to experience two parallel timelines at once. The timelines are identical, but in one timeline, one of her close friends has been murdered, and the in the other, she's still alive. Using her new power, Max must solve and prevent both murders and reunite the two disparate...
