New Games Announced For Xbox Game Preview This Year

Microsoft's Xbox One early access program, Xbox Game Preview, is getting some new titles this year, adding to the two currently out.

Later today program members can access Sheltered, Team 17's post-apocalyptic bomb shelter simulator, and more titles are also on the docket for the end of the year: Futuristic dinosaur survival title Ark: Survival Evolved (shown above), Rivals of Aether (four-person fighting game), Starbound (Chucklefish), and We Happy Few (Compulsion). The latter is a chilling dystopian title with shades of BioShock.

Some of these titles, such as Ark and We Happy Few, will also appear on PC, but gamers' first playable exposure to them will be on the console via the Game Preview program.

Can't believe Elite Dangerous being out on Xbox One today didn't get a bigger reaction.

I can't believe the people berating MS for having a version of early access and ignoring that they all have FREE demo's!

I was reading something somewhere about Elite being cross-buy with the Windows 10 store...is that true?

Played both demos and bought both, 2 of them are cheaper than 1 game! Elite is so good, road map looks good for it also with planet landing coming etc, The Long Dark is stunning.

Damnit left earphones in the car, ill watch that later.

I'm loving Elite at the mo, i play it most nights to do one mission or errand. I love how complex it is and that I have to keep referring to wiki when im stumped. Even though it is complex, all the systems and things happening all make perfect sense.

The Long Dark had major update on Friday, improved weather effects, updated systems etc. spent Saturday playing it, very addictive. The 3 areas so far are huge, found a cave yesterday and a load of new places. August update adding new area!

The updated nature of these preview games is addictive, once among I'm draw back into them, Elite getting CQC update soon also.

Layers Of Fear (Game Preview) Is Now Available For Xbox One

Layers of Fear is a psychedelic adventure horror game about a madness-engulfed insane painter striving to create the work of his life. You will learn the dark story of his past while gathering carefully crafted personal items that can be found in the game. Traverse the vision-induced, constantly shifting house full of supernatural phenomena, where each move of the camera can change the environment, and discover the true motive of the artist.

Try Layers of Fear for free

http://majornelson.com/2015/10/22/layer ... -xbox-one/




Solus Project – co-developed and co-published by Teotl Studios and GRIP Digital – leverages the cutting-edge power of Unreal Engine 4 to tell the story of a lone researcher stranded on a very unfriendly alien planet. The rest of your team is dead, your equipment is destroyed, and you have to figure out how to survive long enough to call for help. And along the way, you might even discover the secrets of an ancient alien civilization. Solus Project hits Xbox Game Preview in early 2016.
