Xbox has announced that the second /twitchgaming Showcase: ID@Xbox will happen on Tuesday, August 10 at 9:00 AM PT exclusively on Twitch at Twitch.tv/twitchgaming or Twitch.tv/xbox.
For next week’s event Xbox promises brand new game announcements from developers and publishers such as Rebellion and Chump Squad, as well as a new look at games like The Artful Escape, Ollie Ollie World, Library of Ruina and RPG Time.
The first showcase happened back in March and highlighted over 60 games on a three-and-a-half-hour stream, including 22 indies joining the Game Pass catalogue on day one. You can re-watch it down below:
Whether we like the format or not, it really goes to show that MS places a lot of importance in indie games more than ever, with already a second event dedicated to them !
I hope we can focus on the great games being shown and not constantly complain about the format…I’d love to see more on Witchbrook, or see ports or announcements of Xbox versions of Eastward, Last Epoch, Loop Hero, Valheim, Wildermyth, Retromania Wrestling, etc. I’ll lose my mind if we can get a date on TMNT Shredder’s Revenge though! Indies, The lifeblood and most interesting thing about gaming in my opinion.
I don’t know that I’ll watch, but I’m hoping to see more games from Annapurna and Devolver on Xbox. Bonus if they’re GamePass. My interest is immediately raised when I hear these names attached, great eyes for quality.
