Microsoft’s Xbox Developer Direct Returns in January with Exciting Announcements

Xbox Developer Direct Set for January 23rd

Microsoft is set to host its latest Xbox Developer Direct event on January 23rd. This marks the third consecutive year that the Developer Direct has been held, establishing it as an annual tradition for revealing the forthcoming year’s lineup for Xbox. The event will include updates on several anticipated Xbox games slated for a 2025 release, prominently featuring titles such as South of Midnight, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and DOOM: The Dark Ages.

Teaser for a Brand New Game

Adding to the excitement, Microsoft's promotional image for the event hints at the introduction of a "brand new game" that will be unveiled during the showcase. This follows last year's event, which offered a sneak peek at Bethesda's much-anticipated Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

Event Format and Viewing Details

The Xbox Developer Direct is expected to follow the same format as previous editions. The event will be hostless, focusing solely on approximately 45 minutes of gameplay footage and announcements. Fans can tune in for live streaming starting at 1PM ET / 10AM PT / 6PM UK on January 23rd. The broadcast will be available on platforms such as Twitch and YouTube.
