There’s no shortage of upcoming video games to get excited for when it comes to the Xbox platform. We know that there is a push to see this platform receive more first-party video game titles. While the studios are still pushing through some incredible game projects, most of us might be eyeing the launch of next month’s Starfield. Bethesda is gearing up for their next big RPG to finally be in the hands of players worldwide. But there’s even more to look forward to playing after this game launches into the marketplace.
Recently, the Twitter account Klobrille posted a new graphic. This account focuses on coverage around Xbox Game Studios along with Bethesda. So recently, the account owner made up a new graphic to remind players of what had been released and what’s coming soon, along with the plans throughout 2024 and beyond. All in all, it looks like there are quite a few exciting video game titles that will be landing for the Xbox Series X/S and PC platforms.
As you can see in the graphic above, you have a few games to keep an eye out for. For instance, Forza Motorsport, Senua’s Saga Hellblade II, Avowed, Fable, The Outer Worlds 2, Perfect Dark, Indiana Jones, and more are all being developed. There are also video game projects in the works that we know very little about. One of those is Kojima Product’s untitled Xbox project. We know that Hideo Kojima is excited about this mystery game, but there hasn’t been anything showcased quite yet.
Again, the push lately from the Microsoft team is to ensure that Xbox Series X/S has at least four first-party video game exclusives per year. Even the head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, commented recently on striving to reach the fabled four first-party exclusives for the platform. Of course, most players might be hopeful that these first-party exclusives are worth their time. After all, the previous big heavy hitter exclusive that was hyped up for Xbox was Redfall, and we saw how troublesome that game was upon release.
For now, we have a ton of great games to look forward to playing for the next year on Xbox Series X/S. But again, for most of us, the next big fans are itching to get their hands on is Starfield. Fortunately, the wait is coming to an end for that title release. Players can expect Bethesda’s next big RPG on September 6, 2023.

Microsoft in July announced that it was relaunching the Xbox Live Gold, its online subscription service that allows players to play multiplayer games, as Xbox Game Pass Core. it will finally be launched today, and it not only gives players access to multiplayer features but also free games. For the unaware, Microsoft has another subscription service for the Xbox called Xbox Game Pass that features a vast library of games that players can play without having to purchase each one separately, along with day-one access to new games. Xbox's most popular subscription is Xbox Game Pass Ultimate which offers a catalog of more than 400 Xbox One, Xbox 360, and original Xbox games as well as access to day-one releases.
It’s never a good day in the video game industry when a company has to close its doors for good. Not only does that mean there’s one less potential video game in development, but it also means that the people who would have worked on that game are now out of a job. Not too long ago, the development studio Volition, which had been around for decades, revealed that they were shutting down as part of their parent group’s “restructuring” program. That left many people without jobs, but thankfully, Xbox Games Studios decided to try and help the crew in a way that should make everyone smile.
