Spencer’s Microsoft E3 2020 confirmation didn’t discuss what the company’s plans will be for 2020. For E3 2019, Microsoft had an Xbox media briefing, which was shared online, and held a series of Inside Xbox presentations. It also held an Xbox FanFest ahead of the event from June 9-10, 2019, which gave people a chance to play Xbox One games offsite.

Here is Spencer’s statement regarding the Microsoft E3 2020 plans.

With the Xbox Series X coming out for the 2020 holiday season, it will likely be a big part of the Microsoft E3 2020 presentations. We could also end up seeing more of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II.

E3 2020 will be held June 9-11, 2020 in Los Angeles. In other news, the ESA made a statement about Sony’s decision to skip this year’s show that discussed “activations” and never actually mentioned Sony.
