The big Xbox conference of the summer will take place like every year, despite the cancellation of E3. The festivities will be there in June 2024 and Xbox has already confirmed certain information. Here is everything we know about the event, and even serious clues for the live action that will follow and which we guess will be dedicated to Call of Duty.
June 2024 Xbox Games Showcase conference dated
Like previous years, with the exception of the 2020 edition which took place in July, the next edition of the Xbox Games Showcase will indeed take place in June, and more precisely on Sunday June 9, 2024.

The Xbox conference will be available in 30 different languages as well as American Sign Language and English audio descriptions.
Surprise, Xbox also announces a second conference following the first. A mysterious image is shared in which we see what looks like a wolf as well as the white house. There is little doubt, it should be the new Call of Duty Black Ops that we have been talking about for months and which should take place during the Gulf War.
What announcements and games to expect from the Xbox 2024 conference?
What can we expect from Xbox Games Showcase 2024? This year, it is very likely that the focus will be on the games coming in fall 2024, namely Ara: History Untold, Avowed, without forgetting Indiana Jones and the Ancient Circle, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and Towerborne whose release is planned for 2024, without further details. The presentation of the first Starfield expansion “Shattered Space” cannot be ruled out, as well as updates to service games like Sea of Thieves. And then let's not forget Age of Mythology: Retold, the release of which was recently made official for this year. In any case, Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 should not be present since it will be released on May 21.
On the third-party gaming side, the Xbox community is eagerly awaiting news of STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, which is scheduled for release on September 5. ARK 2, whose first gameplay extracts are long overdue, is also planned for the end of 2024. Perhaps it will take advantage of the opportunity to finally show itself?

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 Fines are working on.
Now that Activision Blizzard King is owned by Microsoft, we can expect a stronger presence of the publisher's games during Xbox events. Blizzard also confirmed that Diablo IV's Vessel of Hatred expansion will be released this summer. As usual, we can also imagine that a salvo of Xbox Game Pass games will be announced during the event.

As a reminder, the previous edition was particularly rich, notably with the announcement of South of Midnight, Towerborne, Clockwork Revolution and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, without forgetting the new Fable trailer. In addition to First Party games, Xbox has always strived to introduce third-party and independent games, some of which will arrive on release day in Xbox Game Pass.
