Upcoming Xbox games: What’s coming soon on Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One
All the games you will be able to play on the Microsoft console.
Those of us who have been fortunate enough to get our hands on the recently released Xbox Series X and PS5 have been enjoying the power of the consoles for a while now, and conversation has moved on to what new games are on the way for them, and for the older Xbox consoles too.
The good news is, there's loads to come! 2021 is only halfway through and most of the big-hitters for the year are yet to be released, so Autumn once again looks like it will be a very busy gaming season and we would not have it any other way.
Here are all the games with confirmed dates for release on the Xbox Series X and the One range so far.
