Posted By | On 10th, Jun. 2017

Xbox boss Phil Spencer teased that Microsoft’s upcoming E3 2017 press conference would be longer than 90 minutes, defying the company’s past tradition. As it turns out, the actual runtime isn’t that much higher.

According to Microsoft Studios GM on Twitter, the presser will be 97 minutes long. She noted this while referencing how it would be broadcast through Mixer (Microsoft’s renamed Beam service) in 4K.

The Microsoft E3 press conference will not be taking place on Monday. In a first, it will actually take place on Sunday, June 11th at 2 PM PT/5 PM ET. The company will be showcasing Project Scorpio with pricing, the final name and overall look expected.

As for games, State of Decay 2, Sea of Thieves, Crackdown 3 (which hasn’t been outright confirmed as appearing) and a “little something” from 343 Industries are worth looking forward to.

What do you hope to see from Microsoft? Let us know in the comments below and stay tuned for more information.
