It’s Tokyo Game Show week, and once again, Xbox has returned for a new livestream in which it’ll show off upcoming games. Like last year, the showcase will be focused on various first-party games and titles from Xbox partners in Japan, across Asia, and around the world, with the event kicking off at 3 AM PT / 6 AM ET on September 25.
While we’re expecting to see new trailers for multiple Xbox games that we already know are on the way–like Ninja Gaiden 4–there is also speculation that Forza Horizon 6 will be unveiled today. The game is rumored to be set in Japan, so a Tokyo Game Show announcement makes perfect sense for an open-world racing experience that celebrates Japanese car culture. Beyond that, we’re also expecting a quick look at Xbox games that’ll be out later this year, like The Outer Worlds 2 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7.
We’ll be covering the event as it unfolds–at an incredibly early hour in the US–so you can scroll below for all the announcements.
Gungrave Gore: Blood Heat
Over-the-top action series Gungrave is making a comeback, and as you’d expect from this series, it looks heavy on action and massively oversized guns. The game is a full remake of 2022’s Gungrave Gore, polishing it up for modern systems.
007: First Light
Gemma Chan is joining the ensemble cast of 007: First Light. The Marvel’s Eternals takes on the role of Selina Tan, MI6’s Head of Tactical Simulation.
Aniimo
A new look at creature-wrangling game Aniimo was shown off, revealing more details about the inhabitants of the world of Idyll, their personalities, their behaviors, and their relationships with the environment.
Double Dragon: Revive
In the mood for some old-school beat-’em-up action? Then you’ll want to check out Double Dragon: Revive when it launches on October 23.
Hitman: World of Assassination
If you correctly guessed that Bruce Lee was going to guest-star in the Hitman: World of Assassination trilogy, then we’d like you to pick our lottery numbers.
Monster Hunter Stories 1 and 2 is coming to Xbox next month
In addition to a new story trailer for Monster Hunter Stories 3: Reflection, Capcom also confirmed that Monster Hunter Stories and Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin will land on Xbox Series X|S on November 14.
Sudden Strike 5
It has been almost a decade since the last Sudden Strike game was released, and Sudden Strike 5 looks like a grand return for the WW2-era real-time strategy game series. It’ll be out on PC in 2026.
This sounds exciting! It’s always great to see what new announcements come out of the Tokyo Game Show, especially from Xbox. Looking forward to hearing more about the games and innovations they reveal!
Absolutely, the Tokyo Game Show is a fantastic platform for showcasing innovative titles. I’m especially looking forward to any updates on upcoming RPGs, as they often debut some intriguing gameplay mechanics during this event!
