After the backlash of Microsoft not showing anything at the game awards, they hinted that they will be having an event shortly to show some of their games, which is why they were a no show at the game awards.
Some people think that this was horseshit, that MS had nothing planned and were just saying this to take some of the heat off them.
As it stands a few studios are busy trying to make some demo's and gameplay captures of their games to get some content for this less than planned for event.
On the other hand some people believe it was always planned as they needed a show to announce the arrival dates for Starfield, Forza and Redfall (all games due out before the MS E3 showcase).
My take is they have been laying low due to the ABK deal and didn't have anything planned. Once they got told that the FTC was going to try and block the deal anyway, and the amount of backlash from the Xbox community for their no show at the awards show, they are now busy trying to set up an event.
If it's announced that a show will be happening in a couple of weeks then it would have been planned, if it's in Feb then it wasn't planned.
