Xbox knows its presence was sorely missed at The Game Awards 2022, but it's promising an exciting year ahead regardless.

In a tweet published Friday, Xbox VP Aaron Greenberg seemed to address Xbox's relative absence from this year's Game Awards. While Xbox boss Phil Spencer was in attendance, the show lacked any major announcements on Xbox Game Studios IP. And yet despite this, Greenberg has assured we won't be waiting too much longer for announcements. As big company executives are wont to do, Greenberg chose not to share specifics, but played Xbox's no-show up to timing.

"We have a lot planned to show and share about an incredibly exciting year ahead for 2023," Greenberg said. "Appreciate folks are eager to learn and see more. Timing is always key, but don’t worry you will not have to wait too long for what’s next from us."

Of course, Xbox fans also have projects like Perfect Dark, Fable, Avowed, and Outer Worlds 2 on their radar, but it's anyone's guess when they'll release.

I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
