If you’re excited to see Redfall, Starfield, and The Elder Scrolls VI hit the Xbox Series S/X, Aaron Greenberg has some exciting news for you. In a response to a graphic of upcoming Xbox first-party games shared by Klobrille, the GM of Xbox Games Marketing at Microsoft confirmed that “there is a lot more in the works that’s not on [the list].”
— Aaron “Next 12 Months” Greenberg 🙅🏼♂️💚U (@aarongreenberg) July 4, 2022 If you can recall, Microsoft held a massive Xbox and Bethesda games showcase last month. The company revealed a humongous slate of games that are all coming to the Xbox Series S/X in the next 12 months. Even if they aren’t all exclusive to the Xbox, Greenberg’s response is hype-inducing, to say the least. Here’s a short list of all the confirmed titles coming to the Xbox within the next few years:
Starfield Redfall Hellblade 2: Senua’s Saga Perfect Dark Fable Everwild The Outer Worlds 2 Fallout 5 Indiana Jones New Gears of War The Elder Scrolls VI Hideo Kojima’s game
Ultimately, we are not surprised that Microsoft is sitting on a laundry list of secret projects. We need to remember that Microsoft just acquired Activision Blizzard. Once the $70 billion acquisition closes next year, Microsoft will have access to more IPs than it could know what to do with. It wouldn’t take much for Microsoft to put its conglomerate of studios to work on even just a fraction of the properties that it now owns on top of new ones. If that happens, the Xbox will be sitting pretty on exclusives for the next decade. Of course, quantity does not necessarily equal quality. The verdict is still out if Microsoft can give Sony a solid run for its money when it comes to console-selling exclusives.
