Today, at the 2021 E3 Xbox and Bethesda showcase, we were given updates, DLCs, and announcements for 30 titles; some new, some old, and of course, Xbox exclusives.
- Battlefield: 2042 – October 22
Battlefield 2042: Players go to the future with sci-fi weapons at their disposal, getting to fight against each other on seven large maps.

Sea of Thieves, the multiplayer, action-adventure game has already taught us the essential pirate needs; how to sail, fight, explore and loot.

Sunday at E3, we saw new footage of Master Chief+ flying his way through space and wrecked ships; it looks as though a battle has taken place.

There’s no doubt that Forza is already known for its visually appealing graphics, creative mini-games, and expansive storyline. Once again, it looks like they haven’t let us down. In Forza Horizon 5, we’re heading to Mexico! The Forza Horizon 5 team has spent extra time making sure that every aspect of the environment is as realistic as possible by 3D rendering the surroundings for stunning 4k gameplay and 12k skies.
