The Xbox Developer Direct countdown is on as we're now less than 24 hours away from the first games showcase of 2024. As such, you might wonder how to watch the Xbox games showcase and when it starts in your region.
First announced earlier this month, Microsoft caught the headlines by revealing that Xbox's first showcase of the year includes our first proper look at Wolfenstein developer MachineGames's still-untitled Indiana Jones game. You're getting "more than 10 minutes of game and developer insights," which will conclude with "the premier of the first gameplay trailer."
That's not all, though; you're also getting a peep at Obsidian's hotly anticipated RPG Avowed and long-awaited sequel Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2. Rounding it off is Ara: History Untold, a strategy game from a handful of Civilization creators.
What you won't be seeing, though, is anything from Activision Blizzard. Microsoft confirms as much in a press release, saying that "you can look forward to news from those teams later this year." Fret not; the developer is keeping busy. Blizzard is holding a Diablo 4 Developer Update Livestream at 9am PT, 12am ET, and 5pm GMT to chat about Season 3 - if you don't fancy waiting, though, our Diablo 4 Season of the Construct interview dips into everything new.
As for the Xbox Developer Direct time itself, we've spelled everything out for you below, from how to watch the dang thing to providing a countdown if you want something easier to track than the time itself.
The Xbox Showcase countdown is now on, with the hours ticking away before you get new looks at Avowed, Ara: History Untold, Hellblade 2, and the gameplay debut of Indiana Jones from Machine Games – one of the most anticipated upcoming Bethesda games of the year. We'll be counting down the hours with you, and there's info on where to watch the Xbox Developer Direct below.
The first Xbox Developer Direct of 2024 begins on Thursday, January 18 at 12pm PT / 3pm ET / 8pm UK.
Shortly after that, the ZeniMax Online Studios team is hosting an Elder Scrolls Online 2024 Global Reveal event, which starts at 1pm PT / 4pm ET / 9pm GMT. As such, you can expect the Xbox showcase to last roughly one hour.
You can watch the Xbox Developer Direct on Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook on Xbox’s dedicated accounts. Alternatively, you can also tune into Bethesda’s YouTube and Twitch accounts.
You can also catch the whole thing on Steam or China's Bilibili platform on Friday, January 19.
Here's hoping that we'll get a better sense of the upcoming Xbox Series X games release schedule after this Developer Direct concludes, with release dates for Avowed and Hellblade 2 anticipated.

The Dial of Destiny was one of 2023’s biggest flops but, as many soon-to-be-dead Nazis have discovered, just because you knock Indiana Jones down doesn’t mean he’s out of the count. Wolfenstein developer MachineGames has now unveiled Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, which allow players to don that fedora and crack that whip.
By far, the biggest reveal at the second Xbox Developer Direct was Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. The new first-person action/adventure game in development at MachineGames looked great in its first presentation and isn't too far off, either, since it is slated to launch later this year on PC and Xbox Series S|X.
This week on the Eurogamer Newscast, we discuss Microsoft's Xbox Developer Direct 2024, our first look ahead at the year to come from one of the big three console makers.
Nope, Harrison Ford is sadly not voicing the titular tomb raider in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
To celebrate the first trailer of Bethesda's upcoming Indiana Jones game, executive producer Todd Howard stole a Golden Idol from the developer working on it.
Xbox kicked off its 2024 with a jam-packed Developer Direct showcase, bringing reveals and updates on four upcoming releases from four studios, plus a bonus update from Square Enix. The 45-minute presentation, streamed live on YouTube and Xbox's other social channels late Thursday, took the covers off MachineGames' upcoming Indiana Jones game, provided a release date for the highly anticipated Senua's Saga, and revealed a release window for Avowed, Obsidian's next big fantasy RPG.
Barely containing his inner nerd as he lifted the curtain on the gameplay reveal for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Todd Howard explains that he's had almost everything about the game, down to granular plot points, planned out for years.
Today's Xbox Developer Direct stream offered updates on some of 2024's biggest Microsoft games, including MachineGames' Indiana Jones And The Great Circle, Obsidian's Avowed and Ninja Theory's Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2. If you missed the stream and want a quick roundup of all the news, games, release dates and trailers featured, we've gathered it all together in this post.
You might not realize it, but the character of Indiana Jones has quite a history in the video game space. When his movies were some of the toasts of Hollywood, Lucasfilm made various games about the character that took him all over the world and looked for all sorts of artifacts. But it’s been some time since that experience was felt in the gaming space, and the last two movies starring him haven’t helped matters. However, over at Bethesda, Todd Howard had a vision, which has been revealed as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, headed up by Machine Games.
A new trailer for the video game was finally revealed at the Xbox Developer Direct 2024 event, showing the famous archaeologist in action. The new game, titled, is developed by MachineGames and LucasFilm Games, and published by Bethesda Softworks. It tells an original story that has never been explored in the movie franchise starring actor Harrison Ford. Nevertheless, the title still follows Indy on a new adventure around the globe. Little was known about the game so far, but this new trailer sheds some light on what players can expect.
We're going to get a look at some of Microsoft's big new Xbox games tonight, in a brand new Xbox Developer Direct. We've been promised a look at the new Indiana Jones game, Obsidian's new RPG Avowed, and Ninja Theory's Hellblade 2.
