ID@Xbox Game Pass livestream will focus on indie titles

The new ID@Xbox Game Pass livestreamed show will highlight indie titles heading to Xbox One, Microsoft recently confirmed.

Much like Nintendo’s Nindies Showcase, this new Microsoft livestream will focus on independent titles rather than triple-A blockbusters from first- and third-party publishers. Already confirmed for the first ID@Xbox Game Pass livestream are Void Bastards, Supermarket Shriek and Afterparty, though “new reveals” have all been confirmed. We’re also hopeful to hear more of Tunic, a delightful, Zelda-like title showcased by Microsoft at E3 2018.

In related news, Sony has detailed its PlayStation State of Play livestream, one similar to Inside Xbox and Nintendo’s Nintendo Direct. Microsoft also hosts a livestreamed show called Inside Xbox which features on bigger-name titles.

Aussies can expect the first ID@Xbox Game Pass from 3.00 am AEDT on 27 March — we’ve embedded the Xbox Twitch account below.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
