Microsoft recently held a virtual press showcase to flaunt four intriguing indie games coming to Xbox (and in several cases, other platforms too) in the near future, including Still Wakes the Deep, the long-awaited next project from Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture developer The Chinese Room.
It was a little unclear whether the showcase would ultimately be made public – apparently not! – but hopefully this short list can still serve as an aide-mémoire for some interesting titles due in the near-ish future.
First up was Nightscape from Mezan Studios, a side-scrolling 2.5D platformer coming “soon” to PC, PlayStation, Xbox. You play as reluctant hero Layla, aided by cute animal sidekick Goat Kid, in a tale inspired by ancient Arabic astronomy.
