Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, MachineGames' Indiana Jones game, Avowed, and Ara: History Untold are confirmed for the showcase.

Cain co-directed the original The Outer Worlds, before leaving Obsidian Entertainment following the RPG's launch.
Obsidian co-founder Chris Avellone says one of the pitched projects was meant to be a smaller spinoff similar to Fallout: New Vegas.
For example, allowing Obsidian to work on Pentiment and Grounded allowed the studio to work on titles like Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2.
The newest update for Grounded is loaded with new features, including the ability to make and play custom levels, and revamps to combat and quests.
The newest Grounded update gives players all the tools they might need to create their own custom levels.

Xbox boss Phil Spencer says Microsoft will "announce some things that people haven’t seen" and "give updates" on previously announced titles.
Over 100 new items to craft, Base Coziness for new recipes and buffs, and a new boss, the Wasp Queen, also await in the update.
