Microsoft and IGN held an ID@Xbox showcase on October 20 that set release dates for three previously announced games, revealed a co-op sequel and a handful of new indies, and added several titles to Game Pass. Xbox Wire published a full recap alongside IGN's own roundup of the show.
Remasters and a director's cut
The Wolf Among Us Remastered was dated for October 29, 2026. IGN reported that the new version of the 2013 adventure adds enhanced visuals, upgraded animation and audio, a Noir Mode, behind-the-scenes content, playable deleted scenes and a redesigned werewolf form for Bigby.
Shrek 2 Remastered follows on November 10, 2026 on Xbox Series X and S, with new graphics and features over the original film tie-in. Zero Parades: Director's Cut, the espionage role-playing game from ZA/UM, arrives on November 3, 2026 on Xbox Series X and S and PC, and the show carried a new trailer showing gameplay from it.
Reveals and Game Pass additions
The show revealed A Game About Digging a Hole Together, a sequel to the subterranean sandbox game in which players dig at the beach, now with other players, collecting and selling resources to upgrade their equipment. Xbox Wire said it comes to Xbox Series X and S, Xbox on PC and Game Pass on December 4, 2026.
Three CRITICAL REFLEX titles are also heading to Xbox. Arctic Eggs, a physics-driven frying simulator set in a surreal Antarctic city, released on Xbox Series X and S on the day of the show. Mouthwashing, a psychological horror drama aboard a shipwrecked space freighter, arrives October 29, 2026 on Xbox Series X and S, Xbox on PC, Xbox One and Game Pass. No, I'm Not a Human, in which players interrogate strangers at the door to spot shape-shifting impostors, is due on Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One and Game Pass in 2027.
Further out, the hand-drawn precision platformer Croak lands in March 2027 on Xbox Series X and S and Xbox on PC, day one with Game Pass. The sci-fi adventure Magenta Down is set for 2027, the music-led Mr. Records for spring 2027, the tactics and dating hybrid Love Is A Roguelite for fall 2027, and the siege-defence roguelike Drill Keeper for PC Game Pass in summer 2027. Chronoscript: The Endless End, which moves between a 3D residence and the 2D pen-and-ink worlds inside its manuscripts, is due in summer 2027 on Xbox Series X and S and PC, and IGN reported it is also coming to PS5.
Xbox Wire said many of the games shown will support Xbox Play Anywhere at launch, letting players move between console and PC at no extra cost.
