According to the company, the showcase will also feature an extended gameplay presentation for Tides of Annihilation, the upcoming dark-fantasy action adventure game. In addition, Microsoft plans to share an updated preview of Reanimal, a new horror experience created by the developer behind Little Nightmares. These highlights will be accompanied by several other announcements covering games slated for release on Xbox consoles, Windows PC, and Xbox Game Pass.

Microsoft has also confirmed that every title included in this edition of Xbox Partner Preview will be compatible with Xbox Play Anywhere. This means that a single purchase will unlock access across Xbox consoles, Windows PCs, and supported handheld gaming devices. Progression and saves will sync automatically, allowing players to switch between devices without losing their place.
