E3 2021: 20 Huge Video Game Announcements You Need To Know

20. Starfield Is An Xbox/PC Exclusive, Releases November 11, 2022

Some three years after it was first announced at E3 2018, Bethesda finally dropped the veil - well, kinda - on their first new IP in an entire 25 years, Starfield.

The publisher dropped a gorgeous cinematic trailer which, while showing nothing in the way of concrete gameplay, confirmed the game's sweeping scope and sci-fi genre, with a story that appears to follow a group of human adventurers striving to answer the universe's greatest cosmic mysteries.

Despite not releasing until late 2022, Bethesda gave us a surprisingly precise release date of November 11, while also confirming it'll be playable on Xbox Game Pass day one.

The bigger surprise, though? It'll be exclusive to Xbox and PC, meaning per Microsoft's recent acquisition of Bethesda, Starfield won't ever be released on PS4 or PS5.
