"The next Xbox Developer Direct Showcase officially has a date. It will air later this month and feature two returning Xbox staples, Fable and Forza, as well as something very different: Pokémon studio Game Freak's post-apocalyptic action RPG Beast of Reincarnation. On Thursday, Xbox revealed its next big Dev Direct event will happen on January 22 at 1:00 pm EST / 6:00 pm UK."
"First announced in 2023 as " Project Bloom", Beast of Reincarnation is a post-apocalyptic action RPG that has been compared to Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Nier: Automata. The project is being led by Kota Furushima, a longtime Game Freak dev who previously worked on Pokémon 's battle system, among other things, and is set to launch in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. And it will be available on Game Pass, too."
Xbox's next Dev Direct is scheduled for January 22 at 1:00 pm EST / 6:00 pm UK. The event will focus on deeper dives into a smaller selection of games, offering fresh looks at Fable, Forza Horizon 6, and Beast of Reincarnation. Fable and Forza are both developed by Playground Games. Beast of Reincarnation is developed by Game Freak and represents a rare, non-Nintendo, large-scale project for the studio. The game, first announced as "Project Bloom," has been compared to Sekiro and Nier: Automata, is led by Kota Furushima, targets 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, and will be on Game Pass. There is skepticism about Fable actually launching in 2026, while a Japan-set Forza Horizon generates excitement.
