It has already been confirmed that ID Software will discuss DOOM: The Dark Ages before its release later this year. Moreover, it is speculated that we will learn more about titles like Fable and 33 Immortals.

However, Xbox may have some huge news for Developer Direct regarding its multiplatform strategy. Earlier, it was reported that Xbox wanted the best of Xbox and PC in handheld consoles, with changes starting this year. What better event to discuss this further?
