Xbox Summer Game Fest event will have more than 60 downloadable demos – The Verge

With conventional exhibition like E3 and Gamescom cancelled in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, Microsoft is planning to bring a slice of the show floor experience to your living space. As part of Geoff Keighleys Summertime Video game Fest, Microsoft will make dozens of demonstrations for upcoming Xbox One games available to download for a week.

Therell be more than 60 demonstrations offered, and while the list is still being settled, Gregory says it should consist of “someplace between 75 and 100 when the dust settles.” Validated titles include Cris Tales, Destroy All Humans!, Haven, Hellpoint, Skatebird, The Vale: Shadow of the Crown, Raji: An Ancient Epic, and Welcome to Elk.

Microsofts Summer Game Fest Demo Event will be available to gain access to from July 21st to July 27th on Xbox One consoles. The business is preparing to reveal off next-gen Xbox Series X video games at a different occasion this month.

In a blog post, Microsofts Glenn Gregory warns that the demonstrations will not constantly be representative of the last product, because many of the video games are some method off their release. Thats standard practice for show flooring demonstrations, of course, but its unusual for a major video gaming platform to make incomplete games offered to such a broad audience.
