Excited for Gamescom 2013? We are too. Now that we know that Sony will be livestreaming its press conference, it’s time to take a look at what Microsoft will be doing in Cologne, Germany early next week. According to a post just made by Major Nelson, Microsoft will not be livestreaming its Xbox Media Showcase, which will only be available to a select group of media. Phil Spencer and Phil Harrison will play hosts for the week of Gamescom 2013, and for those that are attending, you will be able to check out the Xbox booth, which will be the largest Microsoft has ever done at the show.
Not only will there be hands-on of the Xbox One, but attendees will have a chance to see how Kinect and SmartGlass really adds to the gaming on the Xbox One. In addition, Forza Motorsport 5, Ryse: Son of Rome, Killer Instinct, Kinect Sports Rivals, Project Spark, Dead Rising 3, and FIFA 14 will all be available for show goers to check out. The Xbox 360 will also feature the remake of Fable, World of Tanks, and more partner titles, many of which will be revealed at the show.
Major Nelson also announced that Microsoft will be giving away Xbox Ones during the show, on the hour, every hour. Of course you’ll have to be present to have a chance to win one.
