Xbox Summer Game Fest Demo Event 2021 announced

Following the success of their ID@Xbox Summer Game Fest Demo Event 2020, Microsoft have announced another one for this year. Between 15th-21st June gamers will be able to download and play demos for over 40 unreleased games for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.

I’m sure you’ll agree that’s a lot of game demos to download and play in a single week. However, Microsoft are keen to point out that these are mostly early game demos. They are designed to replace the kind of “show floor demos” you’d be playing at E3. They’ll give gamers a taste of what’s coming and also allow developers to obtain some important feedback on their creations so far.

The full list of demos that are coming should be available soon. In the meantime we’ve got details below of the first 5 titles to be announced for the event.
