It can be hard to keep track of all the games announced, so I've compiled a list of everything announced at the last PS5 and XBox shows.
I also wanted to highlight the differences in approach, and how these games were actually showcased.
I put some clarifications on the categories below.
PS5 - The Future of Gaming
Disclaimer: Everything but GTAV was shown running on actual PS5 hardware
XBox Game Showcase:
Disclaimer: Halo: Infinite was running on a PC, and at this point it's not clear what other games were running on
*Everwild is in pre-production, and has no decided gameplay loop yet
Since these games are all work-in-progress, these categories are rather fluid. Some stuff may turn out to have been a cutscene, or a in-game to have shown final gameplay. It's just a matter of what they looked like at the shows, and things may obviously change, for better or worse.
Gameplay: I was very generous here, and put in anything with even a little gameplay, showing a player's POV and camera. I earmarked (') games that had very little gameplay, or heavily edited, making it somewhat harder to follow
In-game trailer: an in-engine + on-platform trailer, close to gameplay but without a player POV; it should be similar to playing with a free-camera in a final release
In-engine trailer: uses the engine to craft a video; it's not close to playable (Forza is at 30fps rather than the confirmed 60, NBA shows no other players); in NBA's case it's on-platform
CGI trailer: neither on-platform nor in-engine, not at all representative of final release; a fantasy version of what the game might make you feel
Absolutely nothing: the game has a segment, yet nothing new whatsoever is shown about it
EDIT: By popular demand I decided to highlight a few new things.
Bolded games are first-party developed/published exclusives. Those aren't coming to any other system (except PC in XBox's case).
(+) indicates a game that was not previously announced. I'm obviously not counting leaks.
