Xbox and Bethesda will tease some of their biggest 2023 releases this week during the Developer Direct showcase. New and extended gameplay for “Redfall,” “The Elder Scrolls Online,” “Forza Motorsport,” and “Minecraft Legends” will premiere during the showcase, which will be streamed live on Xbox and Bethesda channels. “Starfield,” arguably Xbox and Bethesda’s biggest 2023 release, is notably absent from the lineup — but don’t worry, it’s getting a dedicated show later in the year, although a date hasn’t been announced yet. Here’s what we can expect from this year’s Developer Direct:

  • Redfall: The minds behind “Dishonored” and “Prey,” Arkane Austin, will showcase several minutes of gameplay from their upcoming FPS. The Developer Direct will reveal single and multiplayer gameplay, showing more of how you and your friends will take down bloodthirsty Vampires on the picturesque island of Redfall, Massachusetts. Fans can expect to learn more about combat, customization, bosses, the open world, and more.
  • The Elder Scrolls Online: Studio Director Matt Firor will unveil 2023’s major Chapter update, including the latest regions of Tamriel to become playable in ESO, as well as a major new feature coming in the game’s biggest update this year. The Developer Direct will be immediately followed by the full, standalone ESO Chapter Reveal Event, hosted by Zenimax Online Studios, which will provide all the in-depth details ESO players will be keen to know.
  • Forza Motorsport: The team at Turn 10 Studios have been hard at work bringing fans the next generation of “Forza Motorsport,” built from the ground up to take advantage of Xbox Series X|S. “Forza Motorsport” is back, and we can’t wait to share more gameplay and exciting new details.
  • Minecraft Legends: Mojang Studios will showcase an insider’s look into the PvP multiplayer experience in “Minecraft Legends” — the upcoming action-strategy game from the makers of “Minecraft”. Developed in partnership with Blackbird Interactive and launching this spring, don’t miss exclusive gameplay footage at the Developer Direct.
