I mean, if you want to get technical, they already did. The Hellblade 2 reveal was in-engine running on Series X. Not quite the same as gameplay, but neither was the Unreal 5 demo for PS5; it is a tech demo, not an actual game. And Hellblade 2 overall looked better than the Unreal demo in my opinion, Senua in particular blew away the character model in the UE5 demo, but the environments in the Hellblade 2 trailer were pretty darn impressive too.

I think the key differences here are that Hellblade 2 was both a cinematic trailer and never confirmed as running in realtime on actual Series X hardware, so it's less convincing in terms of "this is how actual games will look".
