Guildford.Games Ltd is a new not-for-profit initiative introduced to “showcase the local industry, form long lasting connections between studios, and bring the concentrated, creative talent within Guildford to the attention of the world”.
Guildford – which the organisation describes as the “Hollywood of video games” – is home to over 3000 “highly-skilled programmers” and 60 individual game studios, including EA, Media Molecule, and Supermassive Games.
“After three successful years of holding the G.G Festival and Awards, hosting in person events, airing interviews with developers to an online audience of two million viewers the Guildford.Games committee have elected to make it official,” the organisation explained in a statement.
