Microsoft additionally revealed that Xbox One TV DVR funtionality would land in 2016 and that Xbox Live would be coming to HoloLens.
EA joined the party as well with a closer look at Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst and a pretty impressive new mode in Star Wars: Battlefront as part of its Gamescom 2015 press conference.
