Xbox and Bethesda Showcase will be a gameplay show By Callum Bains published 12 June 2022 Xbox boss teases some big reveals (Image credit: Christian Petersen (Getty Images)) Audio player loading… The Xbox and Bethesda Showcase will reportedly focus on in-game footage rather than cinematic trailers, and will include a few surprise reveals. That's according to Xbox head Phil Spencer, who spoke about the Xbox Bethesda showcase during the Xbox FanFest watch party (a pre-show event in which various members of the Xbox team talk about the upcoming livestream). As noted by The Verge's Tom Warren in a tweet (opens in new tab), Spencer gave some clues as to what we can expect. "Today is really a gameplay show," Spencer reportedly said during the stream. That means it'll include fewer CGI-based videos, such as cinematic teaser trailers, and more in-game footage. We can also expect updates responding directly to the feedback of Xbox community members. "Today is really a gameplay show" says Xbox chief @XboxP3. Less CGI based on feedback from Xbox fans. "Don't look at any leaks... this show has a couple of surprises..." pic.twitter.com/RnxVKaEsh5June 12, 2022See more Somewhat more tantalizingly, Spencer sugged some of the apparent reveals that have already leaked ahead of the event might not prove accurate. That should keep us all on our toes. "Don't look at any leaks," he said, "this show has a couple of surprises." Just what those surprises will contain is up in the air. Unexpected game reveals? DLC that no one predicted? A brand new Xbox console? Probably not that last one, but it won't be long before we know for certain.
