Since GDC 2020 has been officially delayed, Microsoft will host a two-day slate of live streams starting 17 March 2020. The tech giant plan to talk about Xbox Series X and Project xCloud among other things.

Microsoft have announced a two-day live stream as a replacement for panels and talk at delayed Game Developers Conference (GDC 2020). The first live stream will start next Tuesday, 17 March 2020 on Microsoft's streaming service Mixer.

The tech giant plan to talk about their games such as Gears 5, Sea of Thieves but the most interesting part of the live stream will certainly be about the next-generation console Xbox Series X and the cloud gaming service Project xCloud.

This part will go live on Wednesday, 18 March 11:40 AM Pacific / 2:40 PM Eastern / 7:40 PM CET. At the moment, we do not know if Microsoft plan to reveal some new, exclusive details about Xbox Series X or Project xCloud.
