ID@Xbox Summer Spotlight Series Features Over 30 Games Coming Soon to Xbox - News

Tweet

Microsoft announced it is launching the ID@Xbox Summer Spotlight series that will feature over 30 games coming soon to the Xbox. Right now independent developers have released over 1,500 games from more than 50 countries on the Xbox One through the ID@Xbox program. 

"We’re excited to ensure that support continues into the next generation, with backward compatibility meaning all the games you’ve invested in on Xbox One will come with you to Xbox Series X," said ID@Xbox director Chris Charla. "Independent Developers are already hard at work on games for Xbox Series X, and we’re excited to amp up the support we provide developers as they create next-gen games.

"Normally we’d be showing many of you those games at a trade show. Unfortunately, this is not a good time for in-person events. Which is a bummer, because conventions like E3 and Gamescom and PAX are places we love to celebrate upcoming games from the amazing independent developers we work with at ID@Xbox."
