As the year comes to a close, it’s the perfect time to tackle that backlog. Speaking of which, we have an exciting new lineup of game demos just for you! We’re thrilled to introduce even more unique and creative games that you can add to your Microsoft Store wish list. From December 10 to December 31, 2024, you’ll have the opportunity to play over 35 demos of upcoming unreleased games for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One!
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
These demos will only be available on the Xbox Dashboard through December. Some might be re-published to the Demo channel later, but many will disappear at the end of the month, so be sure to check them out while you can.
The developers would love to hear your feedback. Reach out to them on social media or through their websites. If you enjoy the game, let them know! If you have constructive criticism, they would appreciate that too.
These “game demos” are not the usual kind. Typically, the demos you see in our Demo channel are created after the game is completed (or nearly completed) and represent an almost final version. Think of these as “show floor demos” and not necessarily indicative of the final product. You’ll get to experience these games early – some way early – which gives you the chance to provide your feedback! Keep in mind that these games will continue to evolve and become more polished as they approach release.
We’ll announce the full list on December 10, but here are some games you can expect to see:
Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo – Galla Games/Surprise Attack
A 3D adventure game where you’ll encounter the diverse inhabitants of Limbo, a realm where souls burdened with deep regrets are doomed to relive the same day endlessly. Use your sharp mind and keen observation skills to gather clues from the residents and discover items that will help unravel the mystery of Limbo and its curse that traps souls in an eternal loop.
The Alters – 11 bit studios
Dive into an emotional sci-fi game that seamlessly blends adventure, survival, and base-building elements. Step into the shoes of Jan Dolski, an ordinary worker who must create alternate versions of himself in a desperate bid to escape a planet where even the sun’s rays can be lethal.
Cosmorons – Blind Squirrel Games
Greetings, cosmic conquerors! Introducing Cosmorons, an old-school futuristic shooter where quirky minions take on the cosmos with outrageous weapons and endless hijinks. Your mission: achieve ultimate glory by conquering all systems in your galaxy. New areas offer big rewards but come with increased difficulty. How far can you go?
Section 13 – Ocean Drive Studio
A roguelite twin-stick shooter that you can enjoy solo or with up to three players. As an Agent of the S2P Corporation, your mission is to investigate an ongoing incident at the company’s most secretive facility, known for its obsession with keeping secrets.
