It’ll be the first glimpse of what Microsoft’s pint-sized tower of power can do, and after theconsole’s technical specificationswere revealed last month, expectations are high. We still haven’t seen any actual gameplay footage from either Xbox Series X orPS5, so it’s hard not to get excited about seeing what Microsoft has in store.
The show is likely to contain a few interesting surprises and, in typical Microsoft fashion, a number of ‘world premieres’. We won’t be seeing any titles from first-party studios, such asHalo InfiniteandSenua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, but instead the reveals will focus on games from third-party and second-party studios. We already know that the recently announcedAssassin’s Creed: Valhallabe shown in all its axe-wielding glory, but will we get any solid release dates? Could we possibly hear about a price point for the Xbox Series X?
We will be happy to reveal our first Assassin’s Creed Valhalla gameplay trailer during the First Look Xbox Series X Gameplay on Inside Xbox. Stay tuned! https://t.co/1KjtTI1FdFApril 30, 2020
Sadly, we’ll have to wait to find out all this and more when Inside Xbox airs on May 7.
