The Game Awards, hosted and organised by Geoff Keighley, has steadily become a fixture on the annual gaming calendar. This year will be its fifth and will air a few days later than usual, on Thursday, 12th December. It’s usually a late night in the UK, what with the US time difference.
Keighley hasn’t said what will be there but expect some genuine exclusives – he has a knack for securing them and the wind in his sails. Last year, Keighley managed to convince Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo – Shawn Layden, Phil Spencer and Reggie Fils-Aime, respectively – to get on stage in a show of solidarity for gaming together. It was a remarkable and welcome sight.
EA also used the stage to tease Dragon Age 4, and I squealed with excitement. It’s still my desktop image, that one of the elf and the shadowy wolf. I wonder if we’ll see more this year…
