Today, Microsoft announced an upcoming livestream called "Developer_Direct" that will include looks at several upcoming games from the company's now-numerous development studios.

Set for January 25 at 3 pm ET, the company promises glimpses at Redfall, the latest game from Dishonored and Prey developer Arkane—whose pedigree actually goes all the way back to influential PC classics like System Shock and Ultima Underworld. It will also include glimpses at games from other studios, including Minecraft Legends, Forza Motorsport, and The Elder Scrolls Online.

Notably absent from that list is the game that most people probably want to see: Starfield, the science-fiction epic from The Elder Scrolls and Fallout developer Bethesda Game Studios. If that's your interest, though, don't worry—Microsoft also announced that Starfield would get a standalone event for a "deep dive" in the near future.
