Indie Games Galore: 25+ Titles Coming to Xbox This Week

Indie game fans, you’re in for a treat! Microsoft’s Xbox Series X|S consoles are getting a massive influx of indie games this week, thanks to the ID@Xbox initiative. This program helps indie developers self-publish and promote their games on Xbox and the Microsoft Store on Windows. According to Microsoft, over 25 indie games are set to launch this week, with two already available to play.
“This is one of the busiest launch weeks ever for ID with 25+ indies games launching on Xbox! Today we start with 2,” says the announcement on X (Twitter). “Whether you are a fan of cats and board games or someone who enjoys action adventures amid the zombie apocalypse, we’ve got you covered!”
Let’s dive into the two indie games that kicked off this exciting week:
Quilts and Cats of Calico
If you’re into cozy, cat-filled games with a puzzle twist, Quilts and Cats of Calico might just be your next favorite. Developed by Monster Couch, this game challenges you to sew colorful quilts that attract adorable feline companions. It’s the perfect choice for gamers looking for a relaxing, laid-back experience. You can grab it now for $19.99 on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. Check it out here.
UNDYING
On the other end of the spectrum, UNDYING brings a gritty, emotional RPG experience. Set during a zombie apocalypse, you play as mother Anling and her son Cody, struggling to survive by crafting, exploring, and battling the undead. This story-driven game is already making waves for its poignant narrative and unique gameplay. It’s also priced at $19.99 and available on Xbox Series X|S. If you’re unsure, there’s a free demo available on Steam, so you can give it a try before committing. Learn more about UNDYING here.
What’s Next?
While neither of these games is currently available on Xbox Game Pass, there’s always a possibility they may be added in the future. For now, you can purchase them directly and start playing today.
Personally, Quilts and Cats of Calico might not be my cup of tea, but I can see how it would appeal to fans of relaxing, wholesome games. On the other hand, UNDYING looks right up my alley, and I plan to dive into it once I’ve wrapped up my current medieval adventures in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue exploring this exciting week of indie game releases. Whether you’re into cozy puzzles, intense RPGs, or something in between, there’s something for everyone!
