Xbox has addressed its surprisingly low-key participation in The Game Awards on Thursday, where it opted to make no major game announcements at the show.<\/p>\n

some fans expressed frustration<\/a> following the event, which featured major reveals from rival platform holder Sony in the form of Final Fantasy 16, Death Stranding 2, and Forspoken, but nothing significant from Microsoft.<\/p>\n

Seemingly responding to the reaction, Xbox marketing boss Aaron Greenberg tweeted<\/a> to reassure fans that 2023 would be \u201cincredibly exciting\u201d for the platform and that fans wouldn’t have to wait long for news.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a lot planned to show and share about an incredibly exciting year ahead for 2023,\u201d he wrote. \u201cAppreciate folks are eager to learn and see more. Timing is always key, but don’t worry you will not have to wait too long for what’s next from us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Xbox has first-party games scheduled for next year already in the form of Redfall, Starfield, and Stalker 2.<\/p>\n

However, inevitably much of the company’s focus will currently be on the battle to complete its proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard.<\/p>\n

On Thursday the US regulator said it was attempting to block the $68.7 billion deal because it believed it would enable Microsoft to \u201csuppress competitors\u201d to its Xbox consoles and its subscription content and cloud gaming business.<\/p>\n

Microsoft has said it’s ready to present its case in court after the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) launched a lawsuit to block its proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard.<\/p>\n
