As we enter showcase season in the gaming world, new leaks suggest Xbox is..
0:06
gearing up for some big announcements. Let's break that all down, up next

So the May to June window in the gaming world is chock full of major announcements and events
0:38
And thanks to a new report from Tom Henderson and The Verge, Xbox might be cooking up something pretty amazing
0:44
Quote, Microsoft is in the middle of planning for its big summer Xbox showcase
0:49
I understand this is set to take place on Sunday, June 9th, and Microsoft is currently
0:54
planning to announce a new Gears of War game at the show. A Gears announcement won't be the
0:58
only new Xbox game at the show, which will also include release dates for the upcoming Xbox games
1:04
like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, Avowed, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and of course
1:10
a new Call of Duty set to debut this year. Wow, talk about a lineup of heavy hitters
1:17
Now by the look of it, it looks like Xbox is aiming to pull out all the stops with titles
1:22
like Gears of War, and flex that Activision blizzard muscle off in a big way. Now the
1:26
Call of Duty here in question is allegedly Call of Duty Black Ops Gulf War. And to breathe new
1:32
life into this franchise, Activision wants to potentially take the franchise in a new direction
1:38
Of course, at its core, this will still be a Call of Duty game, but this one looks to adapt aspects
1:44
of an open world game with various biomes. And if I had to compare this game to anything else in the
1:49
gaming world, I'm looking at Halo Infinite with its big map. Now to get back to these showcase
1:54
rumors, Tom Henderson from Insider Gaming also backed these claims, which of course added more
2:00
fuel to the fire. Quote, Insider Gaming can corroborate that this is the plan, but the game
2:05
is currently set to be revealed prior to the showcase in a more traditional fashion, and
2:10
outside of Warzone. Since 2020, previous Call of Duty titles have been revealed as a live event in
2:15
the free-to-play Battle Royale, which attracts millions of players during the event. He continued
2:20
it's understood that Black Ops Gulf War will be revealed prior to Summer Game Fest in June. The
2:26
showcase will feature some form of a deep dive into the game, presumably a campaign mission
2:30
walkthrough if they go traditional. We could then hear more about its multiplayer offering around
2:35
August and Zombies soon after. Now let's shift gears a little bit, no pun intended, and talk
2:41
about Gears of War, because this is big news, and it's been quite a while since the game's last
2:46
entry. So Paris Lillie and Jeff Grubb both claimed something related to Gears 6 would happen this
2:52
summer. This led everyone to connect the dots, and assume some type of teaser, or this is wishful
2:58
thinking here, a full blown reveal could happen at Xbox's Summer Showcase event. Now following all
3:05
this, Tom Warren from The Verge backed these reports, and claimed the Coalition has been
3:09
working on the next Gears game for at least a year. Now Shinobi602 on the Reset Era forums
3:15
who I might add is a pretty credible source for leaks and all this information, also claimed
3:21
Gears 6 would have mind blowing visuals. And I believe the exact quote was, wait until people
3:27
see Gears 6, people aren't ready. After that statement, a lot of people are feeling that Gears
3:33
6 might be a true next gen game. Not only that, but this game will put the power and processing
3:39
of whatever is coming next from Xbox on full display. Wow, that's all I can honestly say
3:44
What a time to be an Xbox fan. And quite honestly, who knows what other secret announcements they can
3:50
make here. Now me personally, I'm just gonna kind of throw this one out there. Maybe some reveal of
3:56
the all digital Xbox Series X could go down, or that new haptic feedback controller can make an
4:01
appearance as well. But with all that being said, I'm gonna pass this question off to you guys
4:06
Of all the announcements I talked about today, which ones are you excited for
4:10
Are you more of a Gears person, or are you looking forward to Call of Duty
4:14
