While the 2024 Summer Game Fest seemed a far more tame and slightly less exciting event than year’s past, despite some major reveals and patented Keighley world premieres of course, the June gaming events are just starting and next up is Xbox. As we covered previously, Xbox announced its big summer event(s) back at the end of April and that day has now arrived. At the time we correctly guessed the double-feature Xbox is hosting today would be capped off with a Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct but that won’t air until after the main event goes live. It all starts today at 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET and we will be watching along with you down below.
Xbox Games Showcase 2024 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct
The Xbox Games Showcase 2024 will be immediately followed by Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct. Today’s event marks the showcase that will feature games from its newly expanded portfolio of studios, including Activision, Blizzard, and Bethesda, which will of course be joined by titles from Xbox Game Studios and its “incredible third-party partners.”
These summer shows tend to be the most exciting of the year so we have high-hopes for today’s double-feature. Even Xbox is saying this is its “biggest moment of the year to show you the future of gaming with Xbox.”
***Save up to $180 on Xbox Series X consoles today from $320
***Xbox Game Pass Core 1-year subs have dropped to $38 (Reg. $60)
It all starts soon and we will be covering each announcement below with full res footage as it comes available.
Join us for a double feature on June 9, 10am PT – Xbox Games Showcase immediately followed by Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct. The Xbox Games Showcase is your look at the new games from Xbox Game Studios, Activision, Blizzard, Bethesda, as well as our partners from around the globe. Immediately following the Showcase, stay tuned for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct for a special deep-dive into the beloved franchise.
