Xbox is heading back to the Tokyo Game Show next week, on September 26, to be precise. We already had confirmation weeks ago that Xbox and select partners would be appearing at the show, but today, Xbox released a special video from Phil Spencer, CEO of Microsoft Gaming, as a reminder to tune in. It seems Phil really wants us to watch it.

Xbox Wire has confirmed that content will be shared from Xbox Game Studios, Activision Blizzard, and Bethesda, as well as a line-up of third-party games primarily based in Japan and across Asia. Traditionally, we do see a few new game announcements. At TGS 2022 we got games like the Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch remaster and the Deathloop launch date, and in TGS 2023, we had reveals from Capcom for Ace Attorney Trilogy as well as 7 new Xbox Game Pass games. Traditionally, we get a mix of Asian titles, new trailers, and announcements for Western games. And hey, if Xbox were to get a Final Fantasy 16 port this would be a great place to announce that!
