Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase: What to expect

Last year's Xbox & Bethesda game showcase lasted for approximately 90 minutes and we expect the same again.

It will be streamed in 1080p 60fps with a 4K 60fps version being available on YouTube soon after it finishes.

There is no official confirmation on what games we should expect to see, although some will be obvious. Bethesda's Starfield is out this year, for example, so that will undoubtedly take centre stage.

A new Forza Motorsport game is coming too, so we hope to see gameplay of that for the first time.

Microsoft has stated that we'll be treated to details on a "diverse lineup of games coming soon to the Xbox ecosystem, including upcoming releases to Game Pass on Xbox and PC". We also wonder if the launch of the teased Xbox Game Pass dongle and/or app for smart TVs will be part of the event too. We certainly hope so.
