32 Indie Developers That Are Now Creating Games For the Xbox One

Earlier today, Microsoft released a list of 32 indie developers who are now currently creating games for the Xbox One. This news comes courtesy of a post made over at the Xbox Wire News blog. The company stated that the list below is only a brief sample of what the ID@Xbox program initiative has in store for fans throughout the entire life cycle of the Xbox One.

One of the most interesting points about this news is that Microsoft is giving all of these publishers the right to create for other platforms just so long as their games debut on the Xbox One first. While this could mean that we will see games like Guacamelee and DiveKick on the Xbox One, it also does pose the question of which future titles will be timed exclusives. Could a game like Ryse: Son of Rome end up on the PS4? While it may be too early to tell, it will be interesting to see how these plans impact both brands in the long run.
