The gloomy period will soon end with the slow arrival of the first conferences in summer 2024. And who says conferences means rumors which are starting to flourish on the web. It is in particular the Xbox conference which is in question this time.
Xbox conference date leaked
Microsoft made the summer 2023 Xbox conference official in February. The Xbox Games Showcase will take place in June, and should take place more precisely on June 9, 2024 if we are to believe the often very well informed sources of TheVerge.

The official announcement of the date and time has yet to be made official by Microsoft but there is actually little doubt that this will change. In previous years, the Xbox conferences were held on Sunday June 12 or 13, so Sunday June 9, 2024 was perfect.
As for the time of the event, it's already been two years since the Xbox conference was held at 7:00 p.m. French time, it shouldn't be too far away.
First games from Xbox conference leak too
What games will be presented at the Xbox 2024 conference? This is THE big question to which the journalist Jeff Grubb, often very well informed about Microsoft's plans, has already partly answered. According to him, the new Gears of War game could be announced on this occasion. Information also confirmed by TheVerge which adds that Gears will not be the only new Xbox game at the conference.
According to the same sources, release dates for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Avowed, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and the new Call of Duty will also be revealed.

With this conference, Microsoft must reassure its audience, but also win over a new one. Discussions around exclusives are causing a lot of talk, as is a possible abandonment of the physical game by the park in the short or medium term.
Beyond 2024, many Xbox games are still expected such as Everwild, Fable, Perfect Dark, State of Decay 3, Contraband, South of Midnight and Clockwork Revolution. Hopefully Xbox will tell us more about these games during the event. It is very likely that surprises will also be planned. The community is still waiting to know what The Coalition, id Software or Double Fine are working on. There is no shortage of Xbox projects, but many of them are long overdue.
