Anyone looking for more games to play will be happy to learn that the ID@Xbox Summer Game Fest demos are now available.

Just like in 2021, Microsoft is teaming up with Summer Game Fest to provide demos for 34 different games on Xbox consoles, which are all available now, perXbox Wire. Unlike many game demos, these are the kind of builds that would usually be reserved for an in-person show floor. As such, some bugs and lack of polish can be expected, and players are encouraged to respectfully share feedback with the developers.

The demos are available from now through June 27, 2022, so if you want to try them you’ll want to act fast. A wide selection of indie games are available, including the heavy metal demon-slaying rock game Metal: Hellsinger. To find the demos, simply boot up yourXbox Series X,Xbox Series S, or Xbox One console and check the store.

Here’s the list of games included in the demo selection:
