This leak comes from noted Xbox insider Klobrille, who made the claims on ResetEra all the way back in 2018. Many assumed that Klobrille was saying that the games mentioned would be announced during Microsoft’s E3 2018 press conference, but the thread in question was actually about the future of Microsoft’s games in general. It’s possible then that these projects, assuming they exist, have been in development for years now and could potentially be shown at the Xbox Series X July 23 event. That being said, fans should take this information with a massive grain of salt.

Klobrille’s claims came in the form of short teases where they didn’t explicitly say the games they were talking about all the time, but strongly hinted at them. This includes the long-rumored Fable 4, reportedly being developed by Playground Games, along with a Perfect Dark reboot, Forza Horizon set in Japan, Halo Infinite with “a really high player-count,” and more.
E3 2018 did see the announcement of Forza Horizon 4, though it was actually set in Great Britain instead of Japan. However, it’s possible that Microsoft has another Forza Horizon game in development at a studio other than Playground Games, especially if that studio is busy working on Fable 4. None of the other leaks have been revealed so far either, and some of the information has actually proven to be incorrect, like Crackdown 3 having 4-player co-op.
Klobrille has been a reliable source of Xbox news in the past, though, so perhaps this old leak will get some validation at the Xbox Series X July 23 event. All we know for sure is that the event will feature the Halo Infinite campaign, so fans will need to tune in to see what other surprises Microsoft may have up its sleeve.
