Microsoft will show "a lot more" of ReCore, the upcoming Xbox One exclusive from Mega Man creator and Dead Rising designer Keiji Inafune, starting next year. That's according to Xbox boss Phil Spencer, who says he recently saw the game and reports that development is progressing well.

"You'll see a lot more of ReCore in 2016," Spencer said to a fan on Twitter. "I watched team play last week, great progress."

ReCore was announced during Microsoft's E3 2015 briefing in June. However, since then, the game has stayed largely under wraps. It's in development at Armature Studio--founded by Metroid developers--and stars a character named Jewel and a robot-dog companion called Mack.

For more on ReCore, check out GameSpot's previous coverage, including our video interview with Inafune (above). It's due to launch in 2016 and is just one of Microsoft's Xbox One titles launching that year. Others include Crackdown 3, Sea of Thieves, Gears of War 4, and Killer Instinct Season 3.

Microsoft has also confirmed that it won't show much more of Sea of Thieves until 2016.

"There's a massive lineup of more titles whether it's ReCore, or Crackdown 3, or Sea of Thieves, or Killer Instinct Season 3, there's just a massive list of games," Xbox executive Aaron Greenberg said about the Xbox One's 2016 lineup. "It's going to be a pretty exciting year as we think about what we show at E3 next year."
