The broadcast will be available on YouTube and Twitch, showcasing Xbox’s internal projects alongside updates from partners across Japan, Asia, and beyond. While the full lineup hasn’t been revealed, industry insiders are tipping that a major highlight could be the first look at Forza Horizon 6, rumoured to be set in Japan a locale fans have long been hoping to see in the franchise.
In addition to the live stream, Xbox will maintain a limited physical presence at the show. Attendees in Chiba, Japan, will get hands-on time with Ninja Gaiden 4, launching later this year on 21 October 2025, and the new ROG Xbox Ally X handheld, which is slated for global release on 16 October 2025.
