Gears 6 is set to be announced on June 9th during an Xbox showcase, alongside release dates for other major Xbox series. The event is expected to coincide with Summer Games Fest and the former E3 week. This announcement comes five years after the release of Gears 5, and there are rumors that The Coalition has focused on the production of the next Gears Of War by cancelling two unannounced games.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Gulf War is set to be featured at the Xbox Showcase in June, with plans for a traditional reveal outside of Warzone prior to the event. The game, developed by Raven Software with multiplayer and zombies handled by Treyarch Games, is expected to have a deep dive into its campaign during the showcase, with more details on multiplayer and zombies to follow in August. Additionally, Xbox is preparing to announce its back catalog of games following the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, hinting at more Call of Duty-related announcements in June.
With E3 being cancelled for the fourth straight year, it's clear that the relevance of the Electronic Entertainment Expo has waned considerably. However, E3 has provided gamers with some of the most iconic and unforgettable reveals of all time, including Microsoft's unveiling of Halo 2 in 2003. The nearly nine-minute video suggested that Halo 2 was going to be a bigger, better sequel in basically every way, even though the final game didn't replicate the complex gameplay elements and sheer number of things going on in the demo.
