After months of anticipation, Xbox will finally reveal the games that will launch on the Xbox Series X.
The gaming giant is hosting an online event this afternoon, during which it’s expected to confirm the Xbox Series X games.
Jerret West, CVP, Gaming Marketing at Xbox, said: “For the Xbox 20/20 May update, we will focus on giving you a first look at next-gen gameplay, trailers and sneak peeks from a wide variety of publishing partners and independent developers across the globe and industry, including Ubisoft’s recently announced Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and hear from game creators about what they’re doing with their games on Xbox Series X.
“We’ll be confirming games that utilise our new Smart Delivery feature, which ensures that you always play the best version of the games you own for your console, across generations.
“And all the games you’ll see will be Xbox Series X Optimised, meaning they are built to take advantage of the powerful Xbox Series X features that make games look and feel incredible, including 4K resolution at up to 120 frames per second, DirectStorage, hardware-accelerated DirectX raytracing, super-fast load times and much more.”
