Geoff Keighley reckons there can be fewer third-party showcases this summer season as many studios can be as a substitute trying to squeeze their choices into the likes of Summer time Video games Fest and different such occasions.
Keighely’s summer season festivities are going forward subsequent month, however fortuitously, it doesn’t sound like there can be many different occasions for third-party corporations. We are saying fortuitously, as a result of final yr was stuffed stuffed with them, and a whole lot of them had been fairly naff, with nothing in the way in which of main reveals.
There have been a whole lot of reveals final yr the place everybody was disenchanted after they weren’t actually press conferences, proper? Like Take-Two, Capcom, Sq. Enix and issues like that.
I believe [they] have realized that in the event you’re going to do a press convention, you form of have to have Half-hour-plus of stuff, and generally they solely have one or two nice video games to indicate, which is probably not sufficient to do a full occasion round. So I believe that’s going to be a little bit of a shift. I’ve a reasonably good sense of what’s coming within the subsequent month, and I believe individuals can be hyped about video games on the whole.
There’s nonetheless an absence of video games popping out proper now, this sort of is the Covid hole yr I believe… with a whole lot of video games being delayed as a result of they had been began through the pandemic. We’re nonetheless hoping for lots of issues to come back out.
