Xbox has officially announced that the 2023 Xbox Games Showcase will take place on Sunday, June 11. While Xbox is not expected to have a presence at this year's E3 event, the company will still be hosting an E3-equivalent show to spotlight its upcoming games.

In fact, it's possible Microsoft will announce some of the games that will be shown during the event beforehand, but that remains to be seen.

Despite being part of the games featured in last year's Xbox Games Showcase, Starfield will not release in the first half of 2023 as promised. Instead, Xbox gamers will have to wait until September 6 to play Starfield for themselves. While this is disappointing news for those looking forward to the game, the delay will hopefully result in a better experience than fans would have had if Bethesda rushed it out to meet
