It is still unclear as to exactly how many studios have been developing first-party games for Xbox Series X. This list includes the ones that we still know of.

It is known that Halo: Infinite will be leading the roster. This 343 Industries game is one of the exciting Xbox titles this year. Along with this, we have The Initiative’s debut title set to showcase their first look at the game on the event. Previously, Xbox had teased that they will announce this project sometime in 2020. Rumor has it that this project is going to be a new entry in the Perfect Dark series.

Microsoft has been working on another console alongside the Series X. This will be a variant of the next-gen console but with a less powerful graphics processor. However, this one will have the same CPU and SSD as its predecessor. Microsoft has been working on this project under the codename “Project Lockhart” and there is a chance that we might get to see it in the July event.

All this news just made the year better for fans. Microsoft has still kept us in a bit of a mystery with the other titles set to reveal their trailers in the major Xbox Series X event. Looks like we are surely going to be in for a surprise and we are quite excited about it. Are you?
