Xbox boss Phil Spencer said that we should expect the announcement of a new exclusive title at E3 in June, as the company increases focus on first-party content.

Microsoft’s head of Xbox Phil Spencer has revealed an increased interest in making exclusive first-party titles for Xbox One. The executive took to Twitter to tease E3 announcements and more.

Spencer first confirmed that there’ll be a new exclusive IP at E3 this year.

@Masih3KA We should have new exclusive IP at E3. I'm trying to make this E3 more about 1st party than past E3s.

Going as far as to say that with all the first-party content planned, this year will be the best yet.

@thekeenpaladin This is going to be a fun year. I think it might be our best 1st party content year ever.

Spencer later reiterated that third-party deals will still be made, but the focus is shifting to Microsoft-developed titles.

@bmuny101 @aceitman @Masih3KA And to be clear we will have 3rd party deals, it's just, imo, important to focus on and support our 1st party.

Spencer has previously teased that the publisher is working on a new IP that’s not another military space marine or driving game.

E3 2015 starts Monday, June 15.
