Xbox has revealed plans for its first Developer_Direct showcase (opens in new tab) set to open on January 25. Contemplating Microsoft has been principally sticking to Xbox and Bethesda Recreation Showcases for the final couple of years, it is sensible that the corporate is in search of a brand new avenue to share info on its upcoming video games that is not restricted by an occasion like Tokyo Recreation Present or Gamescom.
So far as what we are able to count on from the showcase, we all know that the Developer_Direct will do precisely because it guarantees within the identify: It is a showcase that focuses on the builders and their studios. Consequently, there will probably be no host, with the video games being talked about by creators from Arkane, Mojang, Flip 10, and ZeniMax On-line Studios.
Sadly for followers of Starfield, nevertheless, the sport will probably be receiving its personal devoted showcase sooner or later. We is not going to be seeing something of it at this showcase, however we predict to see in-depth discussions on The Elder Scrolls On-line, Forza Motorsport, Minecraft Legends, and Redfall.
This will probably be no shock if you realize me within the slightest, however I am probably the most stoked to see extra about Redfall. In any case, I lately performed and ranked each Arkane Studios recreation from worst to finest. And with Redfall being the primary full cooperative multiplayer expertise from Arkane Studios, I am extremely curious what the corporate can accomplish.
I’ve had my doubts about Redfall because it was first revealed, as I am not a fan of looters. Nonetheless, Arkane Studios is an outstanding studio and if anybody might make the primary good looter shooter, it is them.
You possibly can catch the present on Xbox’s YouTube or Twitch channel at 12pm PT/3pm ET on January 25. We’re uncertain how lengthy the present itself will probably be and if we are able to count on any secrets and techniques, however we’re hoping to get launch dates on a few of Xbox’s greatest video games.
