Xbox and PAX 2017
Whether
you’re into high-octane racing, battle royale first person shooters, or family
gaming, with titles on show from the most diverse line up of games in Xbox
history, there really is something for everyone at the Xbox booth this year.
Fan
favourites including Forza Motorsport 7, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and
Super Lucky’s Tale will be available to play on the booth, in addition
to new releases from local developers including Brisbane-based Defiant
Development’s Hand of Fate 2, and Auckland’s Grinding Gear Games’ Path
of Exile.
Meanwhile,
set aboard the Belfast-built, three-masted Polly Woodside tall ship
just outside of the convention centre, would-be pirates can take to the high
seas with the highly-anticipated Sea of Thieves – the first time the
game has been on show here in Australia.
What’s
more, many of the titles on show will showcase the 4K, high-dynamic range (HDR)
and 60 frames per second capabilities of the new Xbox One X.
This
year, attendees can also join members of the Xbox international team in the
convention centre’s Wombat Theatre on Saturday 28th October to
discuss key industry topics. At 11am, Shannon Loftis (General Manager of Xbox
Publishing) will be live on stage with local industry experts to discuss Women in Games
in Australia
, whilst Chris Charla (global head of ID@Xbox) will sit alongside Australian
developers to discuss how indie games are taking the world by story in The Power of
