A Closer Look at Xbox Direct’s Featured Games
South of Midnight
Dive into the mystical American South with South of Midnight, an action-adventure game where you play as Hazel, on a quest to rescue her mother and mend a shattered world. After a devastating hurricane hits her hometown of Prospero, Hazel finds herself in another realm, facing mythical creatures. Lacking combat skills, she must master the art of "Weaving," a magical technique that allows her to manipulate the fabric of the universe.
South of Midnight is slated for release in 2025 on Xbox Series X|S and Steam.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Embark on a thrilling journey with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, a turn-based RPG set in a fantasy world where the Paintress erases people by painting numbers on a monolith each year. Join Gustave and Lune as they strive to halt the Paintress's deadly cycle and save their loved ones. This game reinvents traditional turn-based combat with real-time mechanics, allowing for strategic dodges and critical hits. Set off with a vibrant cast of characters on the 33rd expedition to break the cycle of death.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 will launch on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Steam, and the Epic Store in 2025.
DOOM: The Dark Ages
Step into the past with DOOM: The Dark Ages, a single-player first-person shooter that explores the origins of the DOOM Slayer's relentless war against the forces of hell. Set in a techno-medieval world, arm yourself with a shield that doubles as a deadly weapon with rotating razor blades and an arsenal of guns to battle hordes of enemies. This prequel to Doom (2016) may unveil the backstory of how the Doom Slayer was found in a sarcophagus in hell.
DOOM: The Dark Ages is set to release in 2025 on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and Steam.
