According to Xbox head Phil Spencer, two of these four titles will be live-service while the other two are more experimental, smaller-scope releases. Furthermore, since these have been confirmed to be recent Xbox games, fans do not need to engage in too much guesswork.

Sea of Thieves is perhaps the most prominent title on the list. This multiplayer open-world pirate game from Rare caught the gaming world by storm, owing to its novel gameplay and enjoyable co-op aspects. Grounded is a co-op multiplayer survival game from the beloved Fallout New Vegas developer Obsidian Entertainment, featuring shrunken humans exploring a perilous backyard.

Hi-Fi Rush is a stark departure from developer Tango Gameworks' survival horror offerings, as it is a cheerful, vibrant, rhythm-based action game in a colorful sci-fi world. Finally, with Pentiment, Obsidian Entertainment once again flexes its narrative prowess with a unique murder mystery point-and-click game set in 16th-century Bavaria.
