Xbox and Bethesda’s Developer_Direct

Xbox and Bethesda have today announced there will be a Developer_Direct presentation by some game creators themselves and will be held at 4am AWST on January 26, 2023. This show will give fans an inside look at some of the games coming to Xbox, PC and Game Pass over the coming months and will included Forza Motorsport, Minecraft Legends, Redfall and the one I’m most excited about, the next chapter reveal for The Elder Scrolls Online.

Presented by game developers themselves from studios including Arkane Austin, Mojang Studios, Turn 10 Studios, and ZeniMax Online Studios, the Developer_Direct will focus on big features, extended gameplay showcases, and the latest info for Xbox games launching in the coming months.

• Forza Motorsport: The team at Turn 10 Studios have been hard at work, bringing fans the next generation of Forza Motorsport, built from the ground up to take advantage of Xbox Series X|S. Forza Motorsport is back, and we can’t wait to share more gameplay and exciting new details. 
• Minecraft Legends: Mojang Studios will showcase an insider’s look into the PvP multiplayer experience in Minecraft Legends – the upcoming action-strategy game from the makers of Minecraft. Developed in partnership with Blackbird Interactive and launching this spring, don’t miss exclusive gameplay footage at the Developer_Direct. 
• Redfall: The minds behind Dishonored and Prey, Arkane Austin, will showcase several minutes of gameplay from their upcoming FPS. The Developer_Direct will reveal single and multiplayer gameplay, showing more of how you and your friends will take down bloodthirsty Vampires on the picturesque island of Redfall, Massachusetts. Fans can expect to learn more about combat, customization, bosses, the open world, and more. 

However, what piqued my interest is that this Developer_Direct will be immediately followed by the full, standalone ESO Chapter Reveal Event, hosted by Zenimax Online Studio Director Matt Firor. There will be unveiled 2023’s major Chapter update, including the latest regions of Tamriel to become playable in ESO, as well as a major new feature coming in the game’s biggest update this year.

But where is Starfield you may ask, which is arguably the most anticipated game of the year? Well, to dedicate the proper amount of time for a deep dive into Starfield, there will be a standalone show sometime in the future.

Be sure to tune in on Xbox channels (Twitch, YouTube) and Bethesda channels (Twitch, YouTube) at 4am AWST/7am AEDT on January 26 to see these latest game updates from Xbox and Bethesda.
