The direct will air on Xbox’s Twitch and YouTube channels on Thursday, January 18, at 3 p.m. ET, and will showcase upcoming releases like Obsidian’s fantasy RPG Avowed, Oxide’s alternate history strategy game Ara: History Untold, and Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, the long-anticipated sequel to Ninja Theory’s 2017 sleeper hit. But we’ve seen those games in action already, so Indiana Jones feels like the headliner here. According to the announcement on the Xbox Wire, the hour-long presentation will feature about 10 minutes of Indiana Jones gameplay and delve into the story and setting.
MachineGames announced the Indiana Jones game back in 2021, and at some point in its development it was meant to be a multiplatform game that launched outside of the Xbox/Windows ecosystem. However, documents revealed during the FTC vs. Xbox court cases in 2023 confirmed that Indy’s latest video game adventure will be exclusive to Xbox and PC following Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda and its studios.
