Microsoft has announced that the ID@Xbox Winter Game Fest Demo Event (catchy title) will begin on December 7th, running through to the 21st. The event will feature over 35 demos, but only five have been confirmed so far.Over on the Xbox Wire post we’re told that unlike regular demos, which usually show the “final version” of the game, many of the demos coming in this event are early and should be thought of as “show floor demos.” There will be over 35 demos, but so far, only five have been confirmed. We’ll update this list as we hear more.Description: Set in a series of procedurally-generated labyrinths, Loot River is a dungeon-crawling action-roguelike that combines the tense, real-time combat and dark fantasy stylings of Dark Souls with the spatial block-shifting puzzles of Tetris.Description: A post-apocalyptic world where cosmic horrors crave humanity but meet punks with shotguns. Influenced by cyberpunk, science fiction, horror, the grotesque and black humor.Description: Create the myth of Baba Yaga by living out the origins of this classic Slavic folk story in Blacktail, the first-person action-adventure from THE PARASIGHT. Experience a one-of-a-kind blend of intense archery combat and dark storytelling. Solve the mystery of missing children and shape your own legend by becoming the keeper of the forest or a lost child’s worst nightmare.Description: The Tale of Bistun is a story-driven action-adventure game inspired by the famous Persian tragic romance “Khosrow and Shirin”. A stone carver with no memory of who he is must traverse blighted lands to discover his identity and the source of a pleading, strangely familiar whisper.Description: You begin your adventure as Nobody, a pale androgynous humanoid who wakes up without any memories (or pants). Soon after you find a powerful magic wand, allowing you to change into many different fantastic Forms!Earlier this week, the Microsoft Store leaked 15 demos which looked set for The Game Awards, including Nobody Saves the World. Here are the other 14:What do you think? Will you be playing any of these demos? We’ll keep you posted when Microsoft announces more!
