ID@Xbox 2022 Winter Game Demo Event Comes This Week

Bi-annually, Microsoft alongside Geoff Keighley work together to organize demo events for upcoming independent titles as part of the ID@Xbox program.

Noted, Microsoft does issue that a full list will be provided come December 6th when the event officially kicks off. The four mentioned are the most notable titles for the showcase.
