If the slew of rumored reveals are anything to go by, this edition of Google I/O will likely be one of the company’s busiest. But it’s not just Google that’s involved.

Thanks to a tweet by Xiaomi‘s Hugo Barra, we know that the Chinese company will also reveal something.

“Beyond thrilled to share that Xiaomi will be a part of Google I/O. A sneak peek of what you'll see from Mi at #io16,” the tweet reads.

The image attached to the tweet also suggests a possible Android TV box. More interestingly, it could also be an Android-powered gaming box, which will definitely be a new avenue for Xiaomi, who traditionally focuses on the smartphone and tablet market.

“Guess which super combo move we’ll be making at #io16,” another tweet from Barra reads.

All will be revealed today though, with the Google I/O keynote kicking off at 7pm South African time.
