Microsoft confirms June Xbox & Bethesda showcase in usual E3 slot

E3 may not be happening this year, but Microsoft has announced an Xbox & Bethesda Game Showcase live stream in its place. 

Gaming fans everywhere were disappointed when E3 2022 was officially canceled, meaning for the third year running there would be no annual gaming convention from the ESA.

The annual amid-June gaming conference is one of the most anticipated each year and is responsible for some of the most exciting announcements in gaming history. Despite expectations tbat E3 would go fully digital, the 2022 show was canned entirely.

Now, Microsoft have announced they are taking up that same E3 slot with a show of their own to premiere new Xbox & Bethesda content.
