Xbox Games Showcase 2026 set for 8 June here in Australia

And it'll focus on Gears of War E-Day.

The Xbox Games Showcase has been scheduled for 8 June here in Australia, focused on Gears of War E-Day and coinciding with a live Xbox Fanfest in Los Angeles, USA.

The events kick off from 3.00 am AEST on 8 June, which corresponds to 10.00 am PDT on 7 June over in Los Angeles. You can head here to find when the show starts in your own timezone.

“We’ll begin the day with our annual Xbox Games Showcase, including first gameplay looks and huge news on upcoming titles from our first-party studios across the Xbox family, as well as our third-party partners around the globe – from the biggest franchises to soon-to-be indie darlings,” Microsoft said of the day.

“Immediately following Showcase, we’ll go even deeper on one of the games coming later this year, directly from the team behind the Gears franchise, The Coalition Studio. Gears of War: E-Day Direct will take players into the start of Emergence Day, offering new details, gameplay and insights.”

We’ll have more on the games from the showcase — and times and dates of other June showcases coinciding with Summer Game Fest — as news is made available.
