It's summer time and we've got another scorching hot line-up of game demos ready just for you! This will be our third ID@Xbox Summer Game Fest Demo event as part of Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest promotion. Starting June 21st and running through June 27th you'll be able to play over 30 demos of upcoming unreleased games for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One!
A few things to keep in mind:
  • These demos will only be up on the Xbox Dashboard for a week. Some might be re-published to the Demo channel later, but many will simply disappear at the end of the week, so check them out while you can.
  • The developers would love to hear what you think. Hit them up on social media or through their websites. If you like the game – tell them! If you have constructive criticism, they would love to hear that too.
  • These "game demos" are not the norm. Typically, the demos you see in our Demo channel are created after the game is completed (or nearly completed) and represents an almost final to final version. Think of these as akin to "show floor demos" and not necessarily indicative of the final product. What that means is that you'll get to experience these games early – some way early – which is awesome since you'll have the chance to provide your feedback! You should also note that these games will continue to evolve and be polished as they near release.
We'll announce the full list closer to June 21st but here are some titles you'll want to keep in mind:


Batora: Lost Haven
