Xbox Reporter Teases What Might Be Shown At Developer Direct, Including A Potential Surprise
Xbox Developer Direct is just around the corner, and the anticipation is building for what Xbox might reveal at their annual January showcase. As usual, reporter Jez Corden has dropped some intriguing predictions, hinting at a potential surprise from Team Green. While he acknowledges that his insights aren't a full report, Corden's sources suggest that the four pillar franchises - Fable, Forza, Gears, and Halo - are likely to take center stage. However, he also whispers of something more adventurous on the horizon.
Corden's statement, "Microsoft has a lot in the chamber it can fire off potentially in the coming months, but the headliners are set: Fable, Gears of War: E-Day, Halo Campaign Evolved, and Forza Horizon 6," sets the stage for what's to come. The January Xbox Developer Direct is an annual event that sets the tone for Xbox's yearly lineup, and while he's not sure exactly what will be unveiled this year, the four pillar franchises seem highly likely. But there's a twist: Corden hints at a surprise from one of Microsoft's more adventurous teams, leaving us curious about what they might have been working on.
This surprise element is a recurring theme at Dev Direct, as mentioned in a recent Pure Xbox article. The question arises: what could this mysterious Xbox game be? The lack of information about Forza Horizon 6 and Gears of War: E-Day only adds to the intrigue. While Corden's predictions are not confirmed, they certainly suggest that Xbox might have some big announcements and surprises in store for the Developer Direct 2026.
