A few days ago, Microsoft held an online event where it revealed new information about upcoming indie games. A total of 60 titles will be released on Xbox platforms in 2021 and after. That’s not all as the event also announced that 22 of those will be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one. It means you can play them for free if you own the Pass.
As the name suggests, they are indie titles so don’t expect AAA budget games. However, some of these still caught our eyes. Hello Neighbor 2 and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 are games that I am waiting for and both will launch sometime this year. The complete list of games is mentioned below:
