Microsoft showed off its fall titles from its ID@Xbox indie game division today with a show on Twitch gaming.
The company showed 20 titles that are either coming to Xbox Game Pass soon or are available now on Microsoft’s platforms. They included games such as Eville, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, and Turnip Boy Robs a Bank.
Xbox’s Eville
The preshow featured Black Girl Gamers showing off Versus Evil’s “madness” game Eville, which is coming to Xbox Game Pass on October 11 and is playable on the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC. Eville is a multiplayer social deduction game, where play with up to twelve friends as you work together — and against each other — to either unmask the Conspirators hiding in your village … or live out your dark side as a stealthy murderer. Yup, sounds like a take on Werewolves Within.
Xbox’s Born of Bread
Microsoft showed interview with devs for titles such as Born of Bread, Moonscars, and more. Born of Bread from WildArts Studio is coming to the consoles at some date in the future. It’s a light-hearted adventure game centered around exploration and a combat system that rethinks turn-based encounters’ tropes.
You can play as a flour golem who possesses a never-ending childlike wonder and a set of odd abilities. You can team up with a colorful cast of characters, explore the different regions of a world ripe with mysteries and engage in a fun and quirky turn-based combat system.
Homestead Arcana
Another title coming to Game Pass in 2023 is Homestead Arcana from Skybound Games for the console and PC. In the game, you can become a farming witch who pioneers, cultivates, and crafts spells to revitalize a corrupted realm in this exploration farming sim. Nurture your plants and push back the Miasma as you discover the mystery of its origins.
Song of Iron
Song of Iron 2 from Resting Relic is coming to the consoles in the future. The Imperium comes and Odin calls you to war. Return to the moody, Nordic-inspired world of Song of Iron, where you can embrace the “Chainbreaker” name given to you by Odin. Seek out the viking clans and free them from thralldom. Hunt down Wolfric, whose clan razed your home and killed the one you loved. Challenge any who block your path in the visceral, merciless, run-and-gun melee combat of Song of Iron 2. The title has a dark-fantasy landscape full of old forests, swamplands, and snow-capped mountains. Sail to new locations rife with danger and secrets alike, strange Imperium facilities, ancient seals of gods, and relics of the past.
Turnip Boy Robs a Bank
Turnip Boy Robs a Bank is coming from Graffiti Games for the console and PC on Game Pass in 2023.
Turnip Boy is teaming up with the fearsome Pickled Gang to plan and execute the weirdest heist of all time. Shake down hostages, steal precious valuables, battle the fuzz, and use wacky tools bought off the dark web to move further into the vaults of the Botanical Bank.
Let’s Cook Together 2
Let’s Cook Together 2 is coming from Yellow Dot for the console in the fall of 2023. It’s a co-op cooking world game where you bring back the taste.
During the Let’s Play sessions, Xbox went hands on playing Ghostbuster: Spirits Unleashed, The Angler, and more. Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed is coming from IllFonic for the console. Preorders are available now.
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed
