For those wondering, think Rocket League without the cars. Looks cool.
isn't rocket league without the cars just soccer?
A more apt description will be soccer with robots ;)

This will also be an event where we see China's top gaming companies, such as Tencent, show what games they'll bring to the console space.
No Chinese games for ps4Any possible death stranding last of us 2 news? Release dates? PS5 info?
This. Can't wait, especially the last time we got new upcoming China Hero Project announcements, a large amount of them looked awesome.The last China conference they put together had some impressive stuff, so I'm interested in catching this.
Will we see something at the level of CrossfireX, where megahits on the Asian PC gaming scene *finally* comes to console too?
We know there will be at least 34 from the teaser images alone.
Anyways, figured out another game. Steam page just went live for it about an hour ago actually:

Cool teaser image. Nice trailer
Only promote them big cinematic exclusives amiriteOutside of the China Hero Project games (some of which aren't even exclusive so wtf), I don't see the point of this conference. I don't see the point of promoting many of these indie games, most of which are on PC already. They're not coming to PS4 first, they're not exclusive, and they don't look like they need an expensive PC to run... Why buy a PS4 or these games on a PS4 if they're already available for your toaster?
The Chinese gaming market is huge but it's entirely on PC. If Sony wants a sliver of that massive pie, they're gonna need to bank role an exciting Chinese PS4 exclusive AAA or even just AA game. Something like a wuxia witcher 3 adapted from some popular martial arts novel might get some peeps to jump.
Is there a reason consoles have not taken off in China?
Is it the government? Price? Games? Lack of piracy?

You're trolling but I'll respond anyway because I'm interested in this discussion. A console needs system sellers. Doesn't have to be big cinematic games, but they do need to stand out and can't be played elsewhere. Indie games serve to compliment the big releases. How many people anywhere buy a system for agnostic toaster ready indie games?
Yes, they have been disappointing so far but that's why Sony should set up their own studio over there and get existing teams from their dev houses to foster and help out on games.The games from the past Chinajoy (Kill X, The Walker, Proj Boundary, Gene Rain etc) ended up as failures so they might have changed course this year.
You have no idea how entrenched the PC market is in China. Why would anyone buy a PS4 over there? For what? God of War? Uncharted? They don't give a shit about that stuff. Kids over there these days are really into China's own culture/history and fantasies based around that. Look at their games and their media. Sony should invest in a big Chinese studio. Their strategy isn't cutting it.
Came in here to say I really hope we get some stuff on Lost Soul Aside. Was one person, but got some funding and is currently working with a small team iirc.
You're right, some of the big games are culture agnostic, but just as many of them are not. Now more than ever, China are creating much of their own content.Some of the most popular games in China are culture-agnostic and doesn't tap into the Chinese fantasy culture at all. PUBG, QQ Speed, Mini World, Knives Out, etc.
Like, I won't deny that Sony could do more in the Chinese market - but the strategy for the Chinese market... is the F2P strategy. It's not funding a AAA version of Legend of Condor Heroes or Battle Through the Heavens. That will work, but short-term/once off strategies that has no global ambition is a wrong move as well.
