Till when will they call their shows xbox-bethesda?

Probably depends on how integrated Activision is into MS's business.

Or maybe they would go the route of having separate MS+Bethesda and MS+Activision shows. This would make a lot of sense. More opportunities to announce games. More opportunity to associate Activision with Xbox, and Activision with Gamepass, even if the games are getting launched elsewhere.

So not sure how credible/reliable this person is:

Rand al Thor has "heard through the grapevine" that nearly every internal studio at Xbox submitted something for the Xbox Showcase. : GamingLeaksAndRumours

But it sounds like this show will be massive from a first party pov.

He stated that some studios even submitted multiple things. He goes on to state that this is where things then have to be cut to fit the 90 Minute runtime.

why wouldn't we believe it?  MS is known for announcing games 5-10 years before release...

I expect Starfield to take up a huge chunk. If the show is only 90 minutes, it's not like they can fit that much. So many studios have things announced so short trailers wouldn't be that interesting.

Obsidian for example. They revealed Avowed 2 years ago and The Outer Worlds 1 year ago. Either could be ready for an early demo, but neither needs a teaser trailer again.
