Microsoft just wrapped its ID@Xbox March showcase, a dedicated live event hosted in partnership with Twitch, shining a spotlight on independent developers on its platform. The over three-hour event compiled new gameplay, trailers, and interviews across 100 titles headed to Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PCs.

Formally dubbed the /twitchgaming ID@Xbox showcase, the event highlighted a varied lineup of upcoming independently published titles, arriving via Microsoft's dedicated ID@Xbox developer program. A subset of those titles also plans to launch directly into Xbox Game Pass, the company's Netflix-style subscription service for games, boasting over 18 million members as of January.

Microsoft has announced 20 titles featured on Friday will be headed to Xbox Game Pass, compiled of both previously announced and new titles. That includes anticipated indie games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Hello Neighbor 2, and a diverse catalog of other indie projects on the horizon. The full list of titles from the ID@Xbox showcase, all hitting Xbox Game Pass at launch, follows.
