What to Expect at the Upcoming Xbox and Bethesda Developer_Direct January 2023
Xbox and Bethesda have specifically said to expect “the latest info for Xbox games launching in the next few months, including The Elder Scrolls Online, Forza Motorsport, Minecraft Legends, and Redfall.” One name notably missing from that list is Starfield, but Bethesda has bigger plans for that much-anticipated title.
“To dedicate the proper amount of time for a deep dive into Bethesda Game Studios’ Starfield, a standalone show is in the works,” Xbox Wire staff wrote.
As for what fans can expect from the games expected to be there, it all starts with The Elder Scrolls Online. Studio director Matt Firor will discuss 2023’s major Chapter update, including “the latest regions of Tamriel to become playable in ESO, as well as a major new feature coming in the game’s biggest update this year.”
If that isn’t enough ESO, the Developer_Direct will be followed by a ESO Chapter Reveal Event that will dive deeper into everything new coming to the game. If you are interested, you can also watch the ESO Chapter Revel Event on IGN’s YouTube.
Turn 10 Studios is planning on sharing “more gameplay and exciting new details” for Forza Motorsport and Mojang Studios will give an “insider’s look into the PvP multiplayer experience in Minecraft Legends.”
Lastly, Arkane Austin will showcase “several minutes of gameplay” from Redfall, and it will include single and multiplayer gameplay and details on combat, customization, bosses, the open world, and more.
