The Xbox Games Showcase is set to broadcast on Sunday, June 7, at 10 am Pacific time, as part of the Summer Game Fest 2026 events. The showcase will be immediately followed by a dedicated Gears of War: E-Day Direct, offering an in-depth look at the upcoming title.
The Xbox Games Showcase can be viewed through official Xbox channels. YouTube currently hosts a placeholder for the livestream, allowing viewers to prepare for the event.

Other potential reveals include State of Decay 3, which recently concluded alpha testing, and Fable 4, which was recently delayed into 2027. The Elder Scrolls 6 is not expected to be present.
