New Xbox One games in spades
Xbox One via the ID@Xbox program, Microsoft has revealed. Additionally, crowdfunded survival sim The Flame in the Flood will make its "console debut" on Microsoft's system.

They are among the more than 50 ID@Xbox games in development listed in a new Xbox Wire post, including some that were previously announced. Another newly unveiled game for Xbox One is Magic Duels: Origins, a free-to-play edition of the collectible card game that will also make its console debut on the system.

Shovel Knight debuted on Wii U, 3DS and Steam last year, and it's now on its way to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 and Vita as well as Xbox One. The retro platformer will arrive on the three PlayStation systems on April 21.

Post-apocalyptic role-playing game Wasteland 2 was also released in full for Windows PC, Mac and Linux last year. The Xbox One is currently the only console InXile's game has been announced for.

Like Wasteland 2 and Shovel Knight, The Flame in the Flood was crowdfunded on Kickstarter to the tune of $251,647 USD. Created by former BioShock and Halo developers, the game sees players raft their way through treacherous, procedurally generated rivers. In addition to Xbox One, The Flame in the Flood is due on PC and Mac.

According to Microsoft, more than 1,000 studios worldwide are making games using ID@Xbox development kits. Games already released through the Xbox One's self-publishing program include #IDARB, Super Time Force, Fibbage and The Escapists.
