News Xbox Teases 'More Than A Few Surprises' For This Week's Gamescom Livestreams

[admin]

​

Welcome to Gamescom week! We've got a busy few days of events ahead, kicking off with Gamescom Opening Night Live on Tuesday and finishing with the final of three daily livestreams being hosted by Xbox on Friday.

Xbox has already revealed the lineup of games set to feature in each of these daily Gamescom streams, but the official description on YouTube also mentions that we'll be getting "more than a few surprises" along the way.

Here's what the description says for day one (on Wednesday), for example:

"Day 1 is packed with exclusive gameplay walkthroughs and developer interviews around Diablo IV: Vessel of Hatred, Diablo Immortal, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Starfield: Shattered Space, Atomfall and Age of Mythology: Retold. Plus all new looks at DRAGON BALL Sparking! ZERO, Overwatch 2, Forza Horizon 5, Forza Motorsport, Let's Build a Dungeon and more than a few surprises and special guests!"

So, what could these surprises be? Looking back at last year, there were multiple announcements on each day relating to things like indie releases, DLC and Xbox Game Pass reveals - the likes of SteamWorld Build and Headbangers: Rhythm Royale were both announced last year. We're assuming it'll be a similar situation this time around.

In other words, don't go expecting anything too crazy - if we are to get any major reveals, they'll probably come via Gamescom Opening Night Live on Tuesday. Nevertheless, it sounds like these Xbox streams will be worth watching.

Rest assured you won't miss anything here at Pure Xbox - we'll be recapping all the big events of the week including the three Xbox livestreams, and you can also watch them here at Pure Xbox (with a live chatroom!) if you want to.
