Microsoft Developer Direct Set for January 25th, Starfield Deep Dive Announced

Microsoft has released news through Xbox Wire that they will host their first “developer direct” on January 25th. The studios that will be updating us on their games are Arkane Austin, Mojang Studios, Turn 10 Studios, and ZeniMax Online Studios. If you are keen on catching all the latest news, be sure to tune in on the official Xbox and Bethesda channels (Twitch or Youtube) at 12pm PT/3pm ET.

In an attempt to set expectations, Xbox was kind enough to provide an outline on what games fans can expect to hear about. This level of transparency is something that publishers and studios are improving upon. It wasn’t long ago that vague teasers would send shockwaves through the industry, only for them to end up major letdowns. Let’s hope that Microsoft continues its announcements in this fashion, and lets the fans hear about their games from those that have the most passion for them – their creators.

But where is Starfield? You’re not the only one to think this, and Bethesda saw it coming. Almost immediately after tweeting the announcement on their official Twitter account, they posted again to clarify that Starfield news was coming soon.

It would seem that we will have to wait a bit longer for an update on the highly anticipated title. However, time is of the essence — Starfield is scheduled for release in the first half of 2023.
