When and where is the WU X announcement?

Recommended Posts

It was fun watching the live announcement of the 40th anniversary edition during the XBOX Showcase on Sunday.

I got the impression that WU X is also going to be disclosed during an event today - but I can't seem to find the event. 

Have they disclosed which stream or broadcast the announcement will be made on? Does anyone have a link?

Thanks!

You can watch it on the official Xbox Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/xbox

At least that's what i suppose...

I’m very interested to see what could be in WU10 to warrant all the extra pomp and circumstance.

I hope it’s Canada but I doubt that would generate this much hype.  Maybe it’s a different type/scale of WU than we’ve seen before.

Either way I guess we don’t have to wait long now.

It's going to be an accurate recreation of the moon, and you get to play as the Halo character.

Canada, Alaska, Caribbean.  Any of those would be nice.

Really really hoping for never-done-before areas like caribbean, south america, africa, south asia, southeast asia, oceania, etc. If not, then maybe some world-wide improvement or something beyond the usual WU, to warrant this "secrecy" 🙂

Personally I'm not expecting anything to justify the secrecy, just a standard WU update that's being treated like this because MS want to use it to pad out their presentation.

Sure they'll hype it and show a pretty video but I don't think we're getting anything we haven't seen before.

('Course by managing my expectations this way, I can be delighted if it does turn out to be amazing 😉 )

Ha I actually had that thought too, moon or Mars.  Prepare for these forums to melt down if that is the case

Absolutely agree, all could use some more love and are fantastic places to fly.

That's what it sounded like to me as well, when Jorg mentioning they had to wait to reveal it. The way he worded it.

Found it by searching Gamecon on YouTube. At the rate they are going, we will be waiting a very long time.

Yup watching it now on https://www.twitch.tv/xbox ... also being shown on youtube and various other places.  I realize many of you don't care to watch/listen to all of it but for those who're interested in all else that MS/Bethesda are doing in the gaming world this is a useful distraction from afternoon work 🙂 (personally I'm interested in Forza Motorsport, Starfield, Elder Scrolls, etc)
 

you

I mean, it's a 1.5 hour showcase of multiple games, so it's not unexpected that it'll just be one small part of the event. Just think of it like lining up for take-off at a particularly busy airport 😄
