Phil Spencer could be at TGS 2022, probably to make an announcement: this is the rumor that reached the ears of journalist Jez Corden, who, however, still cannot guarantee its validity .

According to Corden, Spencer's eventual presence at the Japanese event could be linked to a commitment by Xbox on the production front in the Japanese industry or the formalization of some kind of collaboration. After all, it wouldn't be the first time this has happened.

We know that Xbox will be performing at the Tokyo Game Show 2022 on September 15 at 6:00 am PT, and we imagine that the CEO of Microsoft Gaming will take advantage of this stage for its appearance.

The possibilities, in any case, are many: maybe Spencer will only appear in video, this has also happened and it can focus once again on Xbox Game Pass, confirming the arrival to the catalog of new games popular among the Japanese public.

Before Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon fans (all 5 of you) jump up, it's more likely, if true, the announcement will be a new Ip that will be console exclusive to Xbox. Although a revival of one of there handful of Japanese Ip could be in store as well.

Considering Microsoft still has that event to announce something and show off games releasing the rest of the year, it's likely they may make some big new announcements too. After all, after talking about X022 earlier this year, MS has been quiet about the event since, an considering it's September I believe it likely won't be happening this year if there's no news for it by now, so TGS will be the last Xbox event this year so they'll likely make it count.

There's also a chance it could be that new Kojima game that Microsoft has a trailer for at their showcase, the one where no game was shown and was just showing Kojima speaking about a concept. maybe by now he may have something to show/ I know many people hear forgot all about that game that was supposed to make use of cloud servers.

I would throw gobs of money at my screen for more Lost Odyssey.

 

[Corndog]

It would be smart to a least have a few Japanese made game for Xbox.

 

[Draugoth]

At most some GP titles tbh

 

[Gameplay Gods Bless]

W.e it is it better be Japanese.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

 

[Jennings]

I hope it's a game that's 95% complete and will ship by Q2 2023. Not interested in hearing about 2027 games.

 

[AtomicStarving]

Hope is Forza Horizon Japan

 

[SmokedMeat]

Blue Dragon 2 would be awesome.

If not then something entirely new.

 

[envyzeal]

Can Phil buy more studios while waiting for Activision Blizzard thing to wrap up? If not, I can only imagine bringing loads of JRPG to gamepass.

 

[rofif]

These xboxes are shaking in fear actually !

Yes, there is no law against companies having multiple acquisitions in progress.

 

[Eddie-Griffin]

Yes, there is no law against companies having multiple acquisitions in progress.

It wouldn't help with the regulator issue though, best they wait until at least any serious investigations are done and it's a clear path to approval.

 

[adamsapple]

Let's go Daddy Phil, time to bring the heat !

 

[SenkiDala]

Ah, finally this new studio acquisition.

[RoboFu]

FF16 coming to xbox....

 

[Pallas]

I would throw gobs of money at my screen for more Lost Odyssey.

I'm with you… Lost Odyssey is such a underrated gem of a JRPG. Honestly wish it wasn't stuck on Xbox so more players could enjoy it. It really was the "best final Fantasy" during the 360/PS3/Wii era.

 

[adamsapple]

FF16 coming to xbox....

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

give us Octopath 2 on game pass. I want to be able to play that game handheld and docked. But would much rather have it 4K/ 60 than what it'll be on Switch. It's yours to lose, Xbox!

Make it happen

 

[DeepEnigma]

Funny timing, these.

 

[AmuroChan]

Unless it's a big publisher like S-E or Capcom, it shouldn't have any impact. If Microsoft buys Mistwalker for example, no regulatory body is going to care about that.

The current investigation is exploring a possible monopolistic action, buying more studios at all can be used against MS during this stage.

 

[KungFucius]

At most some GP titles tbh

Yeah trashy GP titles like Starfield and Halo.

 

[rapid32.5]

FFVII Remake. tattoo reveal on Phil's bicep.

 

[N0S]

Capcom Five megaton

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Deja vu ∞

Maybe, but it's all speculation at this point. The only regulatory body with those concerns right now is the UK. Saudi Arabia, for example, has already approved the deal. Buying a small Japanese studio isn't going to move the needle one way or another.

 

[MikeM]

Why are you hating on Lost Odyssey??

 

[DeepEnigma]

Why are you hating on Lost Odyssey??

I still have a sealed copy, same with The Last Remnant.

 

[rapid32.5]

Why are you hating on Lost Odyssey??

Because it's the best FF game yet..

Big Daddy Phil Buys out From Software - Announces a Sci-Fi souls exclusive for Game Pass and PC.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

This dude Phill keeps poking the bear he gonna end up like Leo DiCaprio.

 

[Stuart360]

I still have a sealed copy, same with The Last Remnant.

Seen some good prices for both of them sealed on Ebay.

 

[SSfox]

Maybe the rumoured KI finally being reveal?

 

[legacy24]

let me guess another indie

 

[DeepEnigma]

Will the announcement be on a Wednesday?

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Ooooh, tell me more Phil, tell me more

 

[reksveks]

But not expecting much personally

I expect 1 game like Tales of Arise, 1 RGG & Spike Chunsoft game on GP and info around Starfield's localization

 

[Pelta88]

Weird timing of this rumour from a site we've never heard of before?

I wonder why they waited until today to...

Oh

[Thirty7ven]

Can't wait for Phil to announce Halo Sepuku.

It won't happen, but dear God the rustling of the jimmies would be legendary.

 

[VAVA Mk2]

[SoloKingRobert]

Silent Hill exclusive to Xbox/Windows?

Mic drop moment...

 

[Lady Jane]

Phil stop begging. They don't want you

 

[Barakov]

I'm ready to be disappointed.

 

[coffinbirth]

[solidus12]

Phil buying Capcom? Making RE4 remake an Xbox exclusive?

 

[Dirk Benedict]

He should buy the Silent Hill IP, outright. Then assemble what he can of the original 1-3 teams and get it going. Shit would come to Xbox/Game Pass and PC simultaneously.
