It has already been confirmed that ID Software will discuss DOOM: The Dark Ages before its release later this year. Moreover, it is speculated that we will learn more about titles like Fable and 33 Immortals.

However, Xbox may have some huge news for Developer Direct regarding its multiplatform strategy. Earlier, it was reported that Xbox wanted the best of Xbox and PC in handheld consoles, with changes starting this year. What better event to discuss this further?

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion
The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remake Could Be Announced At The Upcoming Xbox Developer Direct

Considering earlier speculation that Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion may be the unannounced title suggested by insiders and a huge ecosystem change for handheld consoles, the upcoming Developer Direct may be more exciting for the gaming industry as a whole.

Xbox is finally on the right path after years, and with the rumors surrounding it, they aim to keep this momentum for 2025, too. What are your predictions for the Developer Direct on January 23? Let us know in the comments or join the official Tech4Gamers Forum.
