Microsoft in a statement to the press and reported by Windows Central said Xbox plans to launch five or more exclusive games in the next fiscal year, which runs from July, 2022 to June 30, 2023.
"Last fiscal we launched 5 new games across console, PC, and cloud. We are on track to meet or exceed that amount in the next fiscal," reads the statement from Microsoft.
Over the last fiscal year Microsoft launched Age of Empires IV, Flight Simulator, Psychonauts 2, Halo Infinite, and Forza Horizon 5.
It is very likely two of the games Microsoft plans to launch includes Bethesda's Starfield and Redfall as they are currently scheduled to launch in the first half of 2023.
Another potential first-party Xbox game that might release by June 30, 2023 includes Forza Motorsport as the last entry was released in 2017.

Some comments here are forgeting they said fiscal year.. So they are starting new next month. They are not targeting all that in 6 months.
Either way they dont say AAA for all the titles. Since they include titles like psychonaughts and age of empires for last year. So this should not be an issue for MS with all the studios they have.
wow! hope it happens
with MS you have to see it to believe it
Sounds like they're not including Grounded 1.0, Deathloop, Ghostwire: Tokyo, or As Dusk Falls in that list then lol
My guess is Starfield, Redfall, Forza Motorsport, Pentiment, and Avowed!
Considering these games already released it wouldn't make sense to count them again.
Considering they delayed games from this year that is pretty much expected.
5 more than this year so far and only 6 months in. oof
They released 6 last year, 0 this year and 5 next year.. feel like we are missing one
