Details on what exactly Microsoft will show remain vague, other than a promise we’ll see updates on previously-announced games set to be released over the coming 12 months.
Microsoft has said it will attend Gamescom 2022, which returns in-person to Cologne in August for the first time in three years.
It seems likely that reference to fans around the world relates to whatever Microsoft may show during Gamescom’s Opening Night Live stream, the convention’s Geoff Keighley-hosted online component.
Bandai Namco and Embracer will be there, as will Ubisoft – though the latter company has subsequently confirmed its own big reveal event for September, casting doubt on what exactly it will bring to Gamescom a month before.
