Microsoft had a strong start to 2024 thanks to their Developer Direct Showcase, but it sounds like we’ll get even more information on what the gaming giant is up to very soon. Head of Xbox Phil Spencer gathered the attention of gamers everywhere this afternoon with a post announcing an upcoming “business update event.” You can see the post for yourself below.
We’re listening and we hear you. We’ve been planning a business update event for next week, where we look forward to sharing more details with you about our vision for the future of Xbox. Stay tuned.

The post itself doesn’t have any concrete details on what to expect, but there’s a likely subject. Just this morning, The Verge reported that Indiana Jones and The Great Circle, one of Xbox’s biggest first-party games of the year, might be headed to PlayStation after a short exclusivity window. Combined with other recent rumors, like Hi-Fi Rush and Starfield coming to other platforms, and it seems like Xbox might be loosening its grip on its exclusive games. That said, Spencer didn’t give us any idea as to what the announcement would be about, so we’ll have to wait until next week to know for sure.
