We're now just over a week away from Xbox and Bethesda's massive E3 2021 showcase on Sunday, June 13, and as usual, there are loads of rumours flying around about what we might see at the event.
The latest batch of rumours and predictions has arrived via Windows Central, which perhaps most notably has been told that Obsidian could appear in a big way, including the reveal of The Outer Worlds 2.
"I've been told conflicting information about the possibility of Avowed being at the show, which is Obsidian's first-person RPG set in the Pillars of Eternity universe, making me think there's a 50/50 chance we could see something on it.
I've also been told that, surprisingly, Outer Worlds 2 may be announced. Grounded has also been cited for a potential content showcase, detailing some big upcoming new features."
Windows Central also noted in its report that Wolfenstein 3 might make an appearance, Forza Horizon 5 is expected to be revealed with a 2021 release date, and the mysterious 'Project Typhoon' could also show up, along with some kind of "vampire-themed immersive sim" currently being worked on by Arkane Studios.
In any case, there's not long to go until we find out for sure. Join us here at Pure Xbox for the full event next Sunday!

That's okay... But how about a Fallout: New Vegas 2?
Doubt it theyve only just finished the dlc for the first game
So looking forward to June the 13th.
Give me Halo and Forza Horizon 5 for this year 2021 and I’m good. With third party titles released as well during the busy September to December period, I think those two games will be enough.
Then go with a another big game around March 2022. Let’s spread the big release throughout the year please.
Need more Sega on Xbox. I have no expectation with Halo. Forza 5 will be dope and I welcome all surprises.
@trev666
Apparently a very small team worked on the DLC, hence why it took almost 12 months for the first DLC and another 6 months for the second DLC.
Makes sense from Xbox's point of view. Why put lots of resources into DLC for a multi-format game that they didn't even publish, when you could shift them to work on an Xbox eco-system exclusive sequel.
If so hope it series X/s only
@StylesT anything launching 2023 and even late 2022 should be next gen only as they said only up to 2 year's support. I read that as all new projects and any in early development are next gen only. Not a developer so not sure if they can change that easily, the chip shortages are limiting the roll out of next gen units so would that make them switch stance on a project? Is it even possible? Again no clue how game development works.
Please no just finish avowed!
Then outer.!
I’d be down. I loved the first one! Still have to do the dlc though.
Side note. What in the world is project typhoon??? That sounds interesting.
Please make this one longer
Awesome news, Can't wait for june 13th..
Haven't paid the first one yet, but it's on my list.
It may appear at E3, but it ain’t coming out any earlier than Holiday 2022
Don't announce it if it isn't releasing within the next 18 months, at least.
@StylesT It would almost have to be as I would imagine it'd still be several years away.
As much as I love getting confirmation that a game I enjoyed is getting a sequel, announcing something like this if it's still years away is almost pointless, and is something Microsoft seems to like to do.
Obviously I'm not going to be upset if we get confirmation of a sequel even though it's pretty much a lock to already exist anyways, but the showcase better have some major announcements that we don't already assume are happening along with some gameplay footage of some major games.
Needs to be exclusive.
I really enjoyed the first game so to find out there's a sequel is very welcome news.
There's been a lot of discussion on this site and others that Microsoft need to start doing more exclusives, the way that Sony has been doing, and I would say this would be a good place to 'start'.
@Porridge2215 Oddly enough, PS5 exclusives seem to be going to other places as of late. 😏
