Rumour: Xbox To Host New 'Partner Preview' Showcase This Week

Since Xbox debuted the format this time last year, we've seen two Xbox Partner Preview events over the past 12 months, and we're about to get a third this week - once again focusing entirely on third-party games.

So, mark this date and time in your calendar - Thursday, October 17th at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST!

The most recent Xbox Partner Preview was back in March, where we first learned of the likes of Unknown 9: Awakening, The Sinking City 2 and The Alters, while Stalker: Legends of the Zone Trilogy even got a shadow drop.

Here's what Xbox is saying about this October 2024 version of the event:

"In the latest installment, we’ll feature a mix of new and upcoming games for you from incredible partners like Remedy Entertainment, Sega, 505 Games, and many more..."

"During Xbox Partner Preview, you’ll get a first look at gameplay from Alan Wake II’s next expansion, The Lake House, an action-packed new trailer for Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, a peek at multiple bosses in dark-fantasy action game Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, multiple world premieres, and other great titles coming to Xbox consoles, Windows PC, and Game Pass."

Keep in mind that Xbox Partner Previews are not intended to be major, lengthy events - the runtime for the last couple has been around 30 minutes. Expect announcements, new trailers and hopefully an Xbox Game Pass surprise or two!

We'll obviously be covering the event in full here at Pure Xbox, including the ability to watch and discuss it live with other PX users! You'll also find a complete roundup with absolutely everything that was revealed.
