The game will feature hundreds of cars, improved customization options, and a new tire wear system. Players can build and customize garages at their homes and invite friends over to check them out. The game's open world allows players to build and explore together, adding a social twist to the racing experience. Next, Game Freak, known for the Pokemon series, is branching out with Beast of Reincarnation. This new action game takes players on a post-apocalyptic journey through Japan as Emma the Sealer. The game is set to launch in summer 2026 on Xbox Series X and S, PC, and PlayStation 5, and will be available on Game Pass from day one.Double Fine Productions surprised everyone with the announcement of Kiln, an online multiplayer game where players create and then battle as pottery characters.

Double Fine plans to continue updating the game post-launch, with a closed beta coming soon. Lastly, Xbox ended the showcase with a bang, announcing a reboot of the beloved Fable series. Developed by Playground Games, this open-world action RPG picks up where Lionhead left off. Players start as a child in a rural village and grow into Albion's first hero in a generation. The game features a true open world, allowing players to explore freely from the start. Combat combines melee, ranged attacks, and powerful spells, and players can customize their characters, buy houses, get jobs, and even romance villagers. The game's living population includes 1, 000 NPCs who react to the player's actions, adding a dynamic element to the game world.
