Tokyo Game Show 2020: Xbox will open the dances with a dedicated showcase

The official program of the Tokyo Game Show 2020 has been announced with a big surprise: the event will be opened by Xbox with a dedicated showcase. Given the low market penetration of the brand in Japan, this is a truly unexpected novelty.

What will Microsoft be presenting? A nose would say Xbox Series X and its line up, but looking at the Japanese market it is more likely to point to the arrival of Xbox Game Pass on mobile systems thanks to xCloud.

Microsoft's strategy for Eastern countries, where there are vastly more mobile players than console and PC players, had already emerged in Korean commercials. It is likely that the same path will also be followed in Japan.

For the rest, the TGS 2020 program, which will be digital only due to the COVID-19 pandemic, includes conferences by Square Enix, Sega, Level-5 and Koei Tecmo among others. Let's read:
