Microsoft to Talk Windows 10, DirectX 12 at PC Gaming E3 Show

Xbox head Phil Spencer is set to appear on-stage at not one but two E3 press conferences this year.

Spencer will not only be hosting Microsoft's Xbox media briefing, he'll also appear at the first ever PC Gaming Show at the annual event in Los Angeles. 

The executive is set to discuss Windows 10 and DirectX 12 at the latter event. 

“For us, the PC Gaming Show is the ideal place to speak directly to PC gamers, and it’s a great time to talk about Windows 10 – the best operating system we’ve ever created for gamers on PCs,” Spencer told PC Gamer – which is hosting the press conference. “With Windows 10, we’re bringing the best of Xbox with the best of Windows gaming, and DirectX 12 for better gaming graphics and performance.”

Developers including Blizzard, Bohemia Interactive, CCP, Fullbright, Obsidian Entertainment, and Square Enix are all set to appear, as well as chip maker AMD. 

The PC Gaming Show is set to take place on June 16th at the Belasco Theatre in LA and will be livestreamed on Twitch.

Windows 10 launches this summer as a free update for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 users.
