Microsoft has officially locked in its big summer event, announcing the Xbox Games Showcase 2025, set to stream live on Sunday, June 8. Kicking off at 10 a.m. PT, the showcase promises a deep dive into upcoming titles from Xbox’s first-party studios, alongside exciting reveals from third-party partners worldwide. And that’s not all—immediately following the main event, fans will be treated to a dedicated The Outer Worlds 2 Direct, spotlighting Obsidian Entertainment’s highly anticipated sci-fi RPG sequel.
The Xbox Games Showcase has become a staple of Microsoft’s June lineup, and this year’s digital-only event will be no exception. Expect a packed lineup featuring updates on heavy hitters like the recently delayed Fable (now slated for 2026), the Perfect Dark reboot, and possibly more from titles like Gears of War: E-Day or State of Decay 3. The showcase will stream across Xbox’s official YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook channels, ensuring fans everywhere can tune in.
Hot on its heels, The Outer Worlds 2 Direct will pull back the curtain on Obsidian’s next chapter in their award-winning franchise. Fresh off the release of Avowed, the studio is ready to share new gameplay, developer insights, and key details about the sequel, which is expected to land later in 2025. With a release date likely to be confirmed during the event, excitement is building for what’s next in this satirical sci-fi universe.
Mark your calendars—this double feature is shaping up to be a must-watch for Xbox fans. Stay tuned for more updates as June approaches!
