First Look at Xbox Series X Games Happening in Next Week's Inside Xbox

UPDATE: Xbox's Aaron Greenberg further clarifies that this will be focused on third-party games as "the Xbox Game Studios teams are hard at work on some big summer plans. More details soon!" Original story follows. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Xbox has announced we will get our first look at next-gen gameplay from Xbox Series X games from its global developers partners during a special Inside Xbox on Thursday, May 7 at 8am PT/11am ET/3pm GMT. Xbox announced the news via Twitter, but gave no further information as to what games we can expect to see. It is important to note that it specifically mentions its "global developers partners," and not its first-party Xbox Game Studios. One game that has been confirmed to be showcased, however, is Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Ubisoft Nordic's Twitter quote tweeted Xbox's tweet and said "We will be happy to reveal our first Assassin’s Creed Valhalla gameplay trailer during the First Look Xbox Series X Gameplay on Inside Xbox.
