I'm not sure if they'll reveal anything new as they already have a lot announced but I do think TGAs is better to reveal games years away than their own showcases. I still think there's a decent chance that Contraband is 2024 so that could get a trailer, also Indiana Jones but they may save that for June showcase unless Bethesda wants it at TGAs.

By blockbuster I think Xbox just means AAA cause they've used "big" to describe the one game per quarter before, so they probably count Hellblade 2, Avowed and Flight Simulator 2024, alongside Call of Duty 2024 that would be 4 but I'm confident they'll be more than 4 in 2024. As I said, I think Contraband could be 2024 and Indiana Jones. Maybe the Oblivion Remaster too. 

I do agree that Towerborne wouldn't fit the description of "blockbuster/big/AAA" and while I hear Ara is quite a big game, maybe even considered AAA, I don't think a PC only release should count, they need to be considering both the console fanbase and PC fanbase when making statements like this, but it may count to Xbox from a pure business standpoint.

I have my doubts Q1 will have an AAA, I think the only possibility is Hellblade 2 and I'm feeling very unsure on that. What I think is more likely right now is Hellblade in Q2, Flight Simulator 2024 and Avowed in Q3 and maybe Indiana Jones in Q4 or a different AAA title. I don't see what else could hit Q1 other than Hellblade on such a short marketing cycle.

My personal preference, without any valid reason, would be to exclude CoD from the goals (until it's on a 2 year cycle) or use it to raise the goal to 5/years with 2 in the last quarter. CoD certainly fits the bill of Highly anticipated and blockbuster but, idk, it just fill like using cheat code to achieve your end game XD as it's too predictable.

Do you think MS may also have some trailer for their upcoming series/movies or would it be too out of place at TGA?

Don't think COD is being counted Tbh...Just a hunch but I feel like the goal of 4 AAAs a year was made without COD in mind and the talk of them finally achieving it happened before they owned COD.

Probably Fallout TV Show will be shown at TGAs, Grounded and the Gears TV Show/Film haven't entered production yet.
