E3 or no E3, Microsoft were going to hold their annual video game showcase, bringing not only their classics but some recently acquired friends along for the ride. While there is a Part 2 to this due to come as part of an extended showcase on 15 June 2022 at 3.00am AEST, the limit to the excitement of this showcase is whether you most favoured franchise got some attention.
The Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase for 2022 primarily focused on games and downloadable content to be offered by the development studios in the next twelve months, with this nifty infographic showing all that is in the works. And wait, is that some long-time Playstation console exclusive Persona games in the list?
For those who don’t have the time to watch the recorded stream of the showcase or just want to enjoy some high-res assets, click through for a debrief of the major announcements and some of my top picks.:
Forza Horizon 5’s First Expansion Continues Partnership with Hot Wheels
Coming to all supported platforms starting 19 July 2022, Forza Horizon 5 is set to receive its first expansion – which will take players into the clouds high above Mexico to compete in the new Horizon HOT WHEELS Park. Players will be able to complete missions to unlock special Hot Wheels Heats events and celebrate the history of Hot Wheels in a new five-part Horizon Story.
The game will also receive 10 new cars to unlock/purchase and own, including four new Hot Wheels cars which have been scaled up to life size… hopefully with real engines as well…
