Geoff Keighley reckons there shall be fewer third-party showcases this summer season as many studios shall be as a substitute seeking 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 thankfully, it doesn’t sound like there shall be many different occasions for third-party firms. We are saying thankfully, as a result of final yr was stuffed filled with them, and a variety of them had been fairly naff, with nothing in the best way of main reveals.
There have been a variety of reveals final yr the place everybody was disillusioned after they weren’t actually press conferences, proper? Like Take-Two, Capcom, Sq. Enix and issues like that.
I believe [they] have realized that for those who’re going to do a press convention, you sort of have to have Half-hour-plus of stuff, and generally they solely have one or two nice video games to point out, 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 folks shall be hyped about video games on the whole.
There’s nonetheless a scarcity of video games popping out proper now, this sort of is the Covid hole yr I believe… with a variety of video games being delayed as a result of they had been began in the course of the pandemic. We’re nonetheless hoping for lots of issues to return out.
