[summaraize]
Microsoft recently held its Xbox Developer Direct event, revealing exciting games like DOOM: The Dark Ages and Ninja Gaiden 4, set to release this year. However, 2025 appears poised to bring even more surprises, including long-awaited releases for Xbox fans.
According to The Verge’s Tom Warren, 2025 could finally be the “year for Xbox,” with highly anticipated titles like the remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, planned for release between March and June, and a new installment in the Gears of War franchise, Gears of War: E-Day, also set to launch later that year.
Microsoft Reportedly Plans to Launch Gears of War: E-Day and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remake in 2025
In case you missed it, we posted a report about The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remake’s first gameplay details earlier this month, which shed some light on the improvements planned for the massive RPG.
Warren reports that the Oblivion remake is expected to launch between March and June 2025. Meanwhile, Gears of War: E-Day is also in development for release that same year.
Microsoft’s ambitious lineup doesn’t stop there. Warren notes that other major titles, such as The Outer Worlds 2 and Fable, are also slated for 2025, making it a packed release schedule. With such a tight schedule, changes in release dates are always possible.
Additionally, fans can look forward to updates on other anticipated titles like Contraband and Clockwork Revolution, which have been quiet for some time. Warren suggests that the Xbox Games Showcase, held mid-year, could be the platform for these announcements.
Considering all this, 2025 seems to be shaping up as a great year for Xbox—not just because of its impressive game lineup, but also due to other exciting projects in development. One such project is a handheld gaming device, though its release is unlikely to happen before 2025. Xbox head Phil Spencer has hinted that the device is still a few years away.
In other news, insider eXtas1s claims that major Xbox titles may be coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. The rumored lineup includes Diablo 4, Fallout 4, Starfield, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, and Halo: The Master Chief Collection.
Earlier reports from NateTheHate and Jez Corden also hinted that Xbox games could potentially be supported on both the Switch 2 and PlayStation 5, adding more weight to these claims.
