Xbox has announced a new Xbox Partner Preview showcase for 17 October 2024, confirming it will be filled with news and trailers from third-party studios including Remedy Entertainment, Sega, and 505 Games. There will reportedly be “over a dozen” reveals during the event, with it set to last around 25 minutes.
In its announcement, Xbox confirmed Alan Wake 2‘s The Lake House DLC will be a major headliner, with a first look at gameplay set to be shown off. Given the reveal of previous DLC Night Springs was accompanied by a sudden launch, we anticipate this reveal will feature a surprise release date – or at the very least, confirmation of when it will arrive. Previously, Remedy provided an October 2024 launch window.

In addition to Alan Wake 2, the Xbox Partner Preview will also feature the next trailer for Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, the excellently-titled Like a Dragon spin-off starring fan-favourite anti-hero, Goro Majima. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers will also appear, with a new trailer revealing a peek at this game’s many bosses.
Beyond these games, watchers can expect other “new game reveals, release date announcements, and fresh new gameplay from upcoming games.” Xbox Wire will post a bunch of new details and information about these mystery games following the show’s conclusion.
With over a dozen titles set to be featured, and only a rare few confirmed for the showcase, we anticipate there’ll be plenty of surprise games on show. You’ll just have to stay tuned to see what they are.
