ID@Xbox and Twitch Team Up for First Indie Showcase on March 26

We at ID@Xbox, the Independent and Digital games publishing program for Xbox, love indie games. It’s in our blood. Technically, it’s also kind of in our name. Turns out our friends at Twitch also love indie games. When we found that out, we thought “we gotta collab!” So, I’m thrilled to announce the first /twitchgaming Showcase: ID@Xbox!

Here’s the who, what, when, where and why:

Who: ID@Xbox, /twitchgaming and more than 100 (!) games from independent developers based all over the world.

What: We’re featuring tons of independent titles, including brand new game announcements from developers and publishers such as DrinkBox, Curve Digital, Devolver Digital, Dear Villagers and others. During the showcase, we’ll debut new trailers and gameplay for more than 25 games, including S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Second Extinction, The Ascent, The Wild at Heart, Voidtrain, Exo One and many more. We’ll also be making announcements about independent titles coming to Xbox and Xbox Game Pass. Community-favorite Twitch Streamers will host the showcase and conduct interviews with developers, take fan questions and maybe even drop some game codes.

When: Set your reminders for Friday, March 26 at 9:00am PDT. Note that this occurs in the window where the time has changed in the US but not in other parts of the world, so plan accordingly. For example, the showcase will be at 16:00 in the UK, not 17:00 as it usually would be.

Where: You can watch the /twitchgaming Showcase: ID@Xbox exclusively on Twitch at Twitch.tv/twitchgaming or Twitch.tv/xbox.

Why: Because we, Xbox and /twitchgaming, love indie games and supporting independent developers!

10 Games We Hope To See At This Week's Xbox Indie Showcase

https://www.purexbox.com/news/2021/03/f ... e_showcase

Should be some great stuff in this. I already like the look of Ascent, from the teasers they’ve been putting out on Twitter, and Embr has just been announced as coming to Xbox, so I guess we’ll see that. Most hyped to see what Drinkbox have been doing.

Looking forward to this, can’t wait to see what Devolver and Drinkbox have to show

Should be good. And that's 12 Minutes in the bottom left hand corner of that image. That game looks great.

As is tradition seems like MS leaked one of the vids, Stalker 2 Dev Highlights -

Here is a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 dev diary dedicated to the 14th anniversary of the first game in the series — S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. Have a first look at the updated costumes, several guns and unique custom teeth tool. The game is next-gen only (PC, Xbox Series X/S) and will be available on Xbox Game Pass day one.

In the opening paragraph they mention 100 games but then go on to say over 25 games, is that 25 games focused on and then a couple of sizzle reels I’m guessing?

Also do we know the runtime of this?
