This year, once again Microsoft’s gaming company has got the jump on PlayStation and Nintendo as they will be making an appearance at Gamescom. Xbox will be kicking off the Gamescom convention with a showcase of their own. The showcase is said to include more information regarding their third party titles coming to the Games Pass alongside trailers for other major titles.
The game most players are looking forward to seeing more from is Halo: Infinite. Following the disaster that 343 industries experienced two years ago with the game, they will be hoping to deliver some quality graphics and dazzling gameplay mechanics with this title. Furthermore, they will be looking to identify and resolve any bugs that may have appeared during the game’s open beta. Infinite still does not have an official release date. 343 Industries may use this stage to reveal this major announcement. Other games we could be seeing more of include Forza Horizon 5, Fable and Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2.
