Xbox Partner Preview: New Third-Party Games Revealed

Get ready for a major showcase of upcoming third-party games heading to the Xbox ecosystem. The next Xbox Partner Preview broadcast arrives this Thursday, November 20, promising fresh looks at highly anticipated titles from developers like IO Interactive, Eclipse Glow Games, and THQ Nordic. Viewers can expect brand-new game reveals and exciting announcements related to Xbox Game Pass.

This digital event will treat audiences to an exclusive first glimpse of new content for 007 First Light. It will also feature an extended gameplay trailer for the dark fantasy epic Tides of Annihilation and a chilling new look at Reanimal, the latest horror adventure from the creator of Little Nightmares. These titles, along with several others, are all destined for Xbox consoles, the PC Xbox app, and Xbox Game Pass.

A significant benefit for players is that every game highlighted during the showcase is part of the Xbox Play Anywhere program. This means purchasing a single copy grants access to play across your Xbox console, Windows PC, and supported gaming handheld devices, ensuring your progress and achievements travel with you.

The Partner Preview is dedicated to delivering global news from development partners, ranging from release date confirmations and new gameplay footage to world premiere reveals of unannounced projects. Adding to the excitement, Jennifer English, the voice actor for Tides of Annihilation protagonist Gwendolyn, will provide the voiceover narration for the entire show. Following the broadcast, Xbox Wire will publish exclusive deep dives and behind-the-scenes stories for selected featured games.
