What will Microsoft show off at E3 2019?
Microsoft is expected to unveil not one, but two consoles – or possibly one console and one game streaming service. Rumours are that at last one of the new machines will feature an AMD Navi graphics processor, and a high-speed SSD, which promises to accelerate game loading times, as well as give a general performance boost to in-game performance.
While Microsoft is being cryptic, saying it’s bringing “something new” to the table this time around, it has actually confirmed a few things – Halo Infinite, Forza Horizon 4, Fable 4, and, amazingly, Age of Empires 4 (wololo) are coming, as are some new, original titles. In addition to new hardware, we’re expecting to see advances in backwards compatibility and cross-platform play.
There have also been a couple of teases and rumours to suggest Nintendo might make an appearance. Sounds far-fetched, but stranger things have happened.
Trusted Reviews will be at E3 2019 covering all big announcements from major publishers like Xbox, Google, Square Enix, Bethesda and more. Be sure to keep it locked to our gaming section for all the latest news.
