Microsoft is turning the spotlight to a ton of Xbox Series X (opens in new tab) and Xbox One indie games with an extensive new video showcase.
After showing off a set of eight titles at the Guerrilla Collective showcase earlier this month, ID@Xbox revealed that was just the beginning of its summer celebration.
