Microsoft reveals some E3 2018 Xbox plans

Microsoft and team Xbox are busy getting their ducks in a row for North America’s biggest videogame industry show of the year. E3 2018 obviously.

This morning they revealed some basic details for the all-important Xbox E3 2018 Briefing, which will take place live at Sunday, June 10th at 1:00pm PDT at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Those at home will get a great look at all the action in a number of different streaming services including Mixer (and probably Twitch, YouTube, etc. too). There ill be trailer, announcements, more trailers, more announcements and hopefully a few exciting surprises. Inside Xbox will also be broadcasting live from the event with additional coverage from the show.

For those feeling lucky, Microsoft is also putting together a way to win free tickets for the Xbox FanFest at E3 2018.

See the details from the Xbox Wire and/or below.

It?s that time of the year again: E3 is less than two months away! That means now is the perfect time to share more of our plans for one of the gaming industry?s biggest annual events.

Here at Xbox, we?re hard at work getting ready for the big show. We?ll be kicking things off with our annual Xbox E3 2018 Briefing, which you can watch live beginning on Sunday, June 10 at 1 p.m. PDT. During the briefing, you?ll have a chance to check out everything from in-depth looks at previously-announced games to trailers for our unannounced titles coming in 2018 and beyond. You can watch the Xbox E3 2018 Briefing live beginning at 1 p.m. PDT on Sunday, June 10 on the official Xbox Mixer Channel or on the Mixer app for Xbox One and Windows 10.

This year, on Mixer, the Xbox E3 2018 Briefing will be offered in six languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish (LATAM), Portuguese (LATAM), and includes support for English Closed Captions. To select an alternate language, click the ?cog? button within Mixer to view the available list. We?re excited for more fans all around the world to join in on the Xbox E3 2018 Briefing festivities.

You?ll also be able to catch a live stream of the briefing on other streaming services, which we?ll be announcing soon, as well as on the big screen at your local Microsoft Stores.

This year will mark the first year that our hot new show, Inside Xbox, will be airing during E3. Inside Xbox: Live @ E3 will air Monday, June 11 at 3 p.m. PDT and will feature a livestream full of exclusive announcements, game demos, interviews, giveaways and more. We?ll also be streaming live on Mixer every day throughout E3 2018 starting from Tuesday, June 12 through Thursday, June 14, so keep an eye out for our full schedule coming soon.

Finally, if you?re in LA during E3 week, we?ve got something even bigger for you: more details on Xbox FanFest: E3 2018! As we announced last week, you can win a chance to be one of the 400 lucky people to experience Xbox FanFest from June 10 to June 11, or win one of 1,000 brand-new Xbox Briefing-Only Fan Tickets. All winners will be able to enjoy the Xbox E3 Briefing in-person.

Today at 12 p.m. PDT, we?ll be launching the Xbox E3 Fan Event Submission Site, where you can submit your name for a chance, via random drawing, to win a ticket (or tickets, if you choose to add a guest) to Xbox FanFest or a Briefing-Only Fan Ticket. After your submission, you?ll need to keep an eye on the random drawing dates, then watch your email inbox once the winners have been chosen.
