Microsoft announces a ton of indie games coming to Xbox, like Shovel Knight

Can we get a Master Chief boss fight?

Recommended Videos

Microsoft has just announced a ton of indie games coming to Xbox One, which is good news since it feels like Sony announces one every other day. The biggest game in the lot is probably Shovel Knight, but there are some other gems in there like Cuphead.

It’s good to see Microsoft remaining competitive, as it will force Sony and Nintendo to up their games — in the end, we all win. Sadly, it doesn’t seem like the Xbox version of Shovel Knight will have any exclusive content to match Sony’s Kratos boss fight.
