Xbox has unveiled the exact times when gamers will be able to watch the Xbox Games Showcase: June 11 at 10 am PT. The main Xbox event will be followed by Starfield Direct, which will give more information about Bethesda’s newest IP, Starfield.
Ever since the original announcement a few months ago, gamers have been excited about the 2023 version of the Xbox Games Showcase. The event is expected to be packed with content teasing new releases. Previous leaks about the Xbox Games Showcase claimed that it’s going to take around two hours in total, with 90 minutes dedicated to general games and a full 30 minutes only to Starfield, which is arguably one of the most awaited games of the year and Microsoft’s main bet to get more subscribers to Game Pass in 2023.
The Xbox Games Showcase will happen on June 11, at 10 am PT, or 1 pm ET. The event will give players some insight regarding current Xbox projects with its studios, and they will be able to know what’s coming to consoles, PC, or Game Pass soon. Also, the traditional follow-up to the event, the Xbox Games Showcase Extended, was announced for June 13 at 10 am PT. This secondary event is focused on interviews with developers, who share more information about the games shown previously. Both shows will be livestreamed on several channels, including YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook, and they can be seen in 30 different languages to accommodate gamers from all over the world.

Arguably, one of the biggest highlights of the event will be the Starfield Direct showcase, which will happen soon afterward the main event. It will come with brand-new gameplay, interviews with developers (Todd Howard will certainly be there), and some exclusive information from behind the scenes. At the moment, however, it’s still not really clear how many minutes of new gameplay will be actually shown ahead of its release on September 6.
Xbox gamers won’t need to wait until June to know what’s coming to the platform, though. Game Pass has already unveiled its games for May. Of the five titles that were announced, Arkane Studio’s Redfall is already out, Ravenlok is coming out on May 4, Weird West Definitive Edition on May 8, Shadowrun Trilogy on May 9, and Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2 on May 11. Of these games, Shadowrun Trilogy will only be available for PC, though.
