E3 2019 is Microsoft's to lose. As every gamer is making their way to Los Angeles for the most anticipated event within the industry, Sony and its PlayStation console have decided to opt out for first time in the show's history.

The unexpected change dampens the excitement a bit, as the Sony conference has been regarded as the headlining act for the past few years --- the biggest announcements, most surprises, and arguably the best games have came through PlayStation's show. However, with the number one player off the table, alongside EA foregoing a conference this year, all eyes have turned to Microsoft to become E3's main attraction this year, and they didn't disappoint.

Spanning roughly an hour and thirty minutes, Microsoft showcased 60 games, including 14 exclusives, and over 30 games premiering on Xbox Game Pass.
