Japanese developer Pocket Pair will also make an appearance with some new information about its breakout hit Palworld. The studio remains tight-lipped on what to expect, but it can be surmised that it’ll reveal more about the major Palworld update coming this summer, as well as the PvP Pal Arena mode later in the year. Life Is Strange developer Don’t Nod Entertainment will also share more details on its next game, Lost Records: Bloom & Rage.
Indie developers often drive the most innovation in the games industry, and the ID@Xbox Digital Showcase does them great service by bringing them into the spotlight, not just for gamers seeking fresh experiences, but for future funding opportunities as well. Moreover, the upcoming edition of the showcase seems to be packing some proper heat, especially Palworld. As one of the biggest releases of the year, it will undoubtedly be one of the show’s highlights. With Pocket Pair’s roadmap and its partnership with Xbox to improve Palworld, the showcase is going to have a lot of eyes on it come next week.
