Come, Shiny Vampires…

Microsoft Bethesda is all set to broadcast its Developer_Direct presentation — The live-streaming event will kick off in about 30 minutes from now, and can be watched right here on Destructoid via the embed below.

The show will see the Black and Green brand showing off extended updates and tidbits for some of the biggest games set to hit the Xbox and PC platform in 2023. The presentation, as the title suggests, will be led by the developers themselves, as they proudly display their wares for the eager Xbox audience.

We are unlikely to get any major surprises at this relatively low-key show, but whispers abound that we will be finally receiving release dates for Arkane’s trendy monster masher Redfall, and the visually dazzling racer Forza Motorsport.
