Xbox Games Showcase 2026: All the news and trailers

The console industry is in a weird place, and both Xbox and PlayStation have a chance to change the narrative a bit with their showcases at Summer Game Fest. Sony did that by focusing on the single-player titles it’s known for, and now it’s Microsoft’s turn.

The Xbox Games Showcase airs on June 7th at 1PM ET (you can watch it on both YouTube and Twitch), and will be followed by a second presentation focused entirely on Gears of War: E-Day. The event comes at an interesting time for Xbox. Microsoft’s gaming division went through an executive shake-up in April, and new boss Asha Sharma has been making some smaller but welcome changes, while also promising what she calls the “return of Xbox.” Given how confused the Xbox brand has been of late, it seems likely bigger changes are on the way.

The SGF keynote will be focused entirely on games — Microsoft has already said it won’t be talking about its next console — which will likely include major titles like the Halo remake and the recently delayed Fable. But to really make an impression and show the Xbox name is on the right track, there will have to be some surprises. Maybe we’ll finally get a look at The Elder Scrolls VI?

Whatever Microsoft does have in store, you can watch the entire thing at the embed below, and stay tuned to this stream for all of the most important announcements.
