![]() For its part, Bethesda said it is preparing "deep dive" gameplay showcases for Starfield and Redfall "soon," but whether or not that's at the showcase or sometime sooner (or later) remains to be seen. Microsoft is expected to provide clarity on its upcoming release schedule during the Xbox and Bethesda games showcase on June 12. So far in 2022, Microsoft has not released a new first-party game. After all, Todd Howard said he was sure Starfield would launch in November 2022, and now it isn't. However, whether or not that was more of a soft ambition than a concrete commitment is unknown, and as always, any plan in place one day can change the next for any reason. In June 2021, Microsoft committed to releasing a new first-party Xbox game every three months. Then there is Ark: Survival Evolved 2, starring Vin Diesel, which is coming to Xbox as a console launch exclusive-and this one is actually on the books for 2022. Looking to third-party studios, Microsoft has a partnership in place with Just Cause studio Avalanche for its new game, Contraband, but that title doesn't have a release date yet. Some behind-the-scenes footage has been released, and it looks impressive, though.Īnother first-party studio, Wolfenstein developer Machine Games, is making an Indiana Jones game with Bethesda's Todd Howard producing, but it is not expected to launch anytime soon. Then there is Ninja Theory's Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, another high-profile first-party Xbox game that also does not have a release date or a release window. Playground is likely also making the next Forza Horizon game now, but we wouldn't expect it until 2023 or 2024. ![]() All we've seen so far is a brief CG teaser trailer and no real gameplay or concrete details. Microsoft's Playground Games, meanwhile, is making a new Fable game, but it does not have a confirmed release date yet. Looking to the UK, developer Rare is making a new IP called Everwild (on top of its ongoing support for Sea of Thieves), but this project has reportedly undergone significant upheaval and thus is not expected to be released soon. ![]() However, its development was reportedly "heavily affected" by recent turnover, and the title is not expected to launch this year. One of Microsoft's newest studios, The Initiative, is making a new Perfect Dark reboot with the help of Crystal Dynamics. The Coalition is also developing a second project, but all we know is that it is not a Star Wars game. Then there is Gears of War studio The Coalition, which is expected to be working on Gears of War 6, but whether or not it's real and ready for launch in 2022 is unknown. Obsidian's Honey, I Shrunk the Kids-meets Rust game, Grounded, could leave beta and officially launch in 2022. Looking at other first-party studios, Obsidian is working on a pair of new RPGs, including The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed, but neither has an official release date yet. Microsoft gave Turn 10 more time with the next game, but it's been five years since Forza Motorsport 7, so it's about time for the next brand-new entry, we would imagine. The series had been on every-two-years release schedule since the franchise debuted in 2005. ![]() It is expected that the next Forza Motorsport game will launch this year, but that is not confirmed. ![]() By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's ![]()
