Tribeca Games Spotlight [June 11, 2021]
Twitch | Era thread
This marks the festival's first full games lineup since honoring Rockstar's L.A.Noire as an Official Selection at the 2011 Tribeca Festival. And, we're thrilled to welcome them back to help us kick things off with a live sunset concert including music from Red Dead Redemption 2, featuring renowned artist Daniel Lanois and special guests.

"This year's selections showcase the potential for phenomenal storytelling in interactive experiences, with characters and worlds that explore the deep connection we have to ourselves and the world around us," said Casey Baltes, Vice President of Tribeca Games. "From action/adventure to interactive thriller to intimate point and click narratives, these selections demonstrate a range of story and gameplay as well as visual style. We fell in love with the characters and the worlds that each game presented to us."

The Tribeca Games Spotlight, which showcases this year's Official Selections, will also offer exclusive gameplay footage as part of the Summer Games Fest, a free event streaming online.

Thanks for the thread. This year is a mess with these IP-focused events on top of publishers' events. At least most of them seem to agree on June.

Rest assured we have plenty that will definitely make you go 'ooh' and possibly even 'ahh', but we're going to keep the line-up mostly under wraps for now. After all, we don't want to ruin the fun.

With that in mind, here's a tantalizingly vague list at what you can expect to see:
  • The world premiere of a new game from Eidos-Montréal
  • An exciting update on BABYLON'S FALL
  • New details about Marvel's Avengers Expansion: Black Panther- War for Wakanda and updates on upcoming in-game events
  • A deep dive on Life is Strange: True Colors and a first look at Life is Strange: Remastered Collection

Play For All Showcase [June 15, 2021]
Twitch
3:35 PM PDT (June 15)/6:35 PM EDT (June 15)/12:35 AM CEST (June 16)
Jun 15, 2021 at 6:35 PM

GameSpot has partnered with The MIX to create a showcase for games that are charting the path for a brighter, more inclusive video game future. We're calling this the Play For All Showcase, and it will feature more than 20 games that have been hand-selected by the GameSpot team. All of the games in the Play For All Showcase were created by diverse teams that aim to speak to important themes, create uplifting experiences, or explore subject matter that is often missing from big-budget titles. The event will take place on Tuesday, June 15, at 3:35 PM PT / 6:35 PM ET (time subject to change).

The hour-long showcase will feature a variety of games from numerous genres and, along with exclusive teasers, trailers, and gameplay videos, we've also got interviews with a few indie developers discussing their games, inspirations, and the state of the industry. You can expect to see the cyber samurai game Blind Fate: Edo no Yami, the free-form cooking game Soup Pot, surreal RPG She Dreams Elsewhere, and hot spring management game Onsen Master, among others.
