The next Xbox Partner Preview is here, and it's expected to be a good one.

Xbox has already confirmed that several highly anticipated projects will be shown, including Yakuza developer Ryu Ga Gotoku's upcoming title, Stranger Than Heaven. There will also be a new look at the isometric RPG The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, plus an "update" on Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl.

Right now, rumors are swirling about what else might be shown. Some of the most common predictions include more information and perhaps a release date for the previously announced Persona 4 remake. There's also a chance that a long-awaited The Witcher 3 DLC, which is rumored to be in the works, could appear.

It's important to remember that Xbox Partner Preview events focus on third-party games, rather than those by Xbox itself. No matter what's shown later, you can follow along here for live updates and our reactions as it happens.

The Xbox Partner Preview showcase takes place today, March 26, 2026, at 10AM PT / 1PM ET / 5PM GMT.

There are multiple ways to watch the Xbox Partner Preview showcase.

This includes via the official Xbox You Tube channel and Twitch page.

An ASL version of the stream is also available via a dedicated Xbox ASL Twitch account.

As Gaming Editor at Tech Radar Gaming, it's my responsibility to extensively cover the latest events, shows, games, and hardware products, and that includes Xbox events like this. Before I worked at Tech Radar, I contributed to some of the UK's largest gaming magazines, including Play, Edge, PC Gamer, and SFX.

I have been covering gaming and gaming hardware on a daily basis for the best part of a decade. While I've often found myself on the Blue side of the console canyon, I've become a pretty regular Xbox player in recent years, picking up my first this generation, as well as enjoying the raft of Xbox games coming to other platforms in more recent years. As a result, I get just as excited about these Xbox events as any other.

Wuthering Waves is coming to Xbox! With some 'exclusive benefits' for Xbox Game Psss subscribers. Nice!

Now on to an anime title! A free-to-play gacha perhaps?

Hunter The Reckoning - Deathwish! A Nacon published game here, coming later this year.

Definitely some kind of horror game, with a creepy vampire police officer.

Now on to first reveal... Something set in New York? Intriguing. Let's see what this is.

The countdown is on! And an on-screen message has revealed that the stream will be thirty minutes long.

It's happening everyone! The stream is just beginning, so get ready for the announcements to start trickling in...

Poll votes are pouring in, and it's not really that surprising that Persona 4 Revival is topping the results so far.

Don't forget to have your say too before the stream begins in just a few minute.

One of the most common predictions I've seen on gaming forums thus far is the reveal of a new The Witcher 3 DLC. An expansion has been rumored to be in the works for some time, and is expected to come out before the confirmed The Witcher 1 remake.

If I had to pick just one prediction that I think is the strongest, it's that Persona 4 Revival is going to get a new release date trailer soon.

The game was first revealed more than nine months ago at an Xbox Games Showcase and we haven't heard anything since.

It's definitely the right time for a new update, and Xbox has already confirmed that Sega titles will be appearing today.

Dash here to take the reigns, though Rob hasn't gone anywhere - he's going to be providing support by grabbing screenshots throughout the show.

There is now just 15 minutes to go until the stream begins, so take your seats and get ready.

We know from teaser at the beginning of the You Tube video and the official blog that we will see or get updates on Stranger Than Heaven, Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, and The Expanse: Osiris Reborn.

In terms of rumored appearances, might we see Persona 4 Revival? Or maybe even the hotly-rumored new DLC for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt?

It really is up in the air otherwise and we're not sure what to expect. What about you, let us know in the comments what you're hoping to see!

Today's Xbox Partner Preview stream will be available in the usual main places of You Tube and Twitch.

You'll want to head over to the official Xbox You Tube channel and Twitch page for the main streams, while you can also catch an ASL version of the stream via a dedicated Xbox ASL Twitch account.

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of today's Xbox preview Event.

Rob, Managing Editor of Tech Radar Gaming, here, and together with my colleague Dash, we're going to give you all the key information, details, and build-up to today's event, as well as reactions, and rolling coverage once it starts.

Speaking of which, it's only 30 minutes until go-time now, so it's worth starting to get in position!
