The Xbox Games Showcase 2023 took place yesterday, with a host of exciting announcements, release dates, and new trailers.
We've taken a look at five of the biggest and promising reveals from the event.
Fable
With the return of the popular Fable series being announced two years ago, we now have a proper teaser trailer for the game.
Richard Ayoade narrates the clip, which showcases the first release in the series since the poorly received 2012 Fable: The Journey.
Naturally, fans are extremely excited for the return of one of the most innovative action role-playing series of all-time, although there is no specific release date just yet.
The game is being developed by Playground Games, the same company behind the Forza games.
1 TB Xbox Series S
Want more space on your next-gen Xbox without forking out too much? The newly announced 1TB version of the cheaper Series S model will serve your needs.
The new version of the console will be retailing at $349, which is $50 more than the 512GB Series S.
