But taking into account Final Fantasy XIV is coming to the Xbox Series! Square Enix and Microsoft have announced a close partnership with Microsoft, it is realistic to predict that a new instalment of the legendary Dragon Quest series will be announced at the show. Also we can't exclude that the audience will be presented the first trailer of JRPG Persona 6, which has been rumoured for a long time, and Atlus studio employees hinted that they will show something interesting in 2025.
Well, let's wait for the 23rd of January and see what will be shown to us at the Xbox Developer Direct. The show will start at 19:00 (CET).
