Microsoft kicked off Xbox 20/20 with a brand new episode of Inside Xbox that revealed not only our first-ever look at Xbox Series X gameplay, but revealed a healthy slab of next-gen and cross-gen games coming to the platform this year and beyond. In addition to this, Ubisoft and Microsoft also revealed our first-ever look at Assassin's Creed Valhalla gameplay. However, beyond our debut look at the gameplay of the new Assassin's Creed, the brief episode of Inside Xbox didn't offer up much. While the big media dump of Xbox Series X games had plenty of reveals, world premieres, and promising games, it was missing big, hype-inducing titles. In fact, beyond Assassin's Creed Valhalla, the episode didn't feature a single blockbuster game.

The show kicked off with the reveal of Bright Memory Infinite, a promising first-person shooter with a lightning-fast fusion of action game elements. Unlike some games featured, this title truly looked next-gen, which is impressive considering it's being made by one single developer. Meanwhile, the event also had impressive trailers for pre-existing games like Yakuza: Like a Dragon and Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2. Further, there were also plenty of world premieres for games like Dirt 5 and Second Extinction. A horror game previously thought canceled also made a surprise appearance.

That all said, if you missed the new episode of Inside Xbox, don't worry you can check out every new Xbox Series X game revealed below, including the new Assassin's Creed Valhalla trailer:
