A busy January of gaming news continues. Last week it was the reveal of the Nintendo Switch 2, and now it’s a showcase of upcoming Xbox games. Microsoft’s latest Developer Direct takes place today, and it’s meant to provide a “deep dive” look at some of the biggest upcoming games for Xbox. That includes Doom: The Dark Ages (which might release in May, according to leaks) as well South of Midnight and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
Most exciting, though, is the promise of a mystery game. We don’t know what it is — hence the mystery — but the tease suggests it’s something big. For context, the highlight of last year’s Developer Direct was a gameplay deep dive for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. We’ll be covering the news as it happens, but if you want to tune in live, here are all the details. (You can also just watch via the embed at the top of this article.)
