Every major announcement from April’s Inside Xbox show

Today, Microsoft hosted the first episode of Inside Xbox for 2020. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, there wasn’t a traditional show, but a lot of remote presentations about games like Obsidian Entertainment’s “Grounded” and more. You can take a look at the highlights below.

Grounded got its first gameplay reveal during the Inside Xbox show. The game will be developed with input from the community, so if you want to get involved, be sure to get in touch with Obsidian Entertainment. Grounded is coming to Xbox Game Preview and Steam Early Access on July 28.

Xbox Series X

Xbox’s Jason Ronald was interviewed by Xbox Live Director of Programming Larry Hryb – also known as Major Nelson – about the upcoming Xbox Series X. While previously-known specifications were revealed, the main point both wanted to stress was that you need to store Xbox Series X titles on the internal solid-state drive, or Seagate Expansion Card, due to the performance requirements. You can still play Xbox One games from other external hard drives.
