On January 18th, the Xbox Developer Direct will offer updates on games from some of the studios the behemoth have swallowed over the past several years. Most excitingly, that'll include an update from MachineGames on their in-development Indiana Jones game.
Other games to feature include Ninja Theory's Hellblade 2: Senua's Saga, Obsidian's Elder Scrolls-alike Avowed, and Oxide's strategy game, Ara: History Untold.
The stream will take place at 12pm PT/8pm GMT on Thursday, January 18th at Xbox's Twitch and YouTube channels. Shortly after, Zenimax Online Studios will offer an update on The Elder Scrolls Online at 9pm GMT.
