Microsoft Starting E3 Presser Five Minutes Early!
By Alex Chen | October 12, 2025
Later today, Microsoft is kicking off its E3 press conference at 10:30am PDT. No, make that 10:25am. The reason: “A special surprise.”
Spike TV host Geoff Keighley tweets, “Xbox just moved up its briefing start to 10:25 am tomorrow due to a very special pay69 last-minute surprise.” Starting five minutes early, huh.
We’re thinking that could mean one of two things:
1. Starting five minutes early means there will be a last minute new game announcement or a new trailer. (Though he seems to offer this hint: “For those of you asking, ufa888 my sources say the opening is riches777 musical in nature.”)
2. Staring five minutes early means the press conference will actually start on time — 10:30am.
Whichever! We’ll be there. With bells on. Be sure to check back for our live blog later this morning.
