NDA this, NDA that... For someone who just can't keep their mouth shut it's hard not being able to go into the details of what makes this achievement truly special.   I can say, however, that seeing how things are moving in the industry from the inside makes you dizzy. Some talk about building the plane while you fly it. Well, this year it felt like the plane also had to be invented, drawn, designed, and tested while you were up in the air.   And still, video games have shown to be as refreshing as ever. I personally feel the focus shifting back into deep, emotionally complex stories. Well, maybe I'm just getting old and can't play competitive games anymore. I like to think that's not the case and that prime storytelling is back to being close to developers' and publisher's hearts again. Just look at this year's winners (and their cultural impact!) and tell me if I'm wrong.   And so, as narrative takes the spotlight, good localization becomes an even more vital necessity for game creators. Keywords Studios’ bet on quality has always paid off, and when the fog of change has cleared, it will be clear we made the right decision once again. #ImagineMore #KeywordsStudios

Building unmess to determine unit costs at a segment level has been fun. Over the last few weeks, we have worked with several game publishers to accurately attribute cost to player actions. From firsthand experience, the majority of the gaming and esports industry is loosely linked to their financials. Larger companies like Riot Games and Epic Games have well-established systems and they still struggle to determine unit costs. unmess is here to change that. What started as a simple financial analytics tool is now turning into a central financial warehouse for digital consumer companies, starting with game publishers. The goal is to automate unit cost calculation to save time for FP&A teams while enhancing accuracy. With unmess, FP&A teams can accurately attribute cost and profitability to its drivers and more.

In the top-100 most wishlisted games on Steam, there are 4 Extraction Shooters. A clash of giants is brewing, with each game amassing hundreds of thousands of wishlists and backed by major publishers and investment funds. This illustrates how new genres emerge and evolve on Steam. Not long ago, Battle Royales were at the forefront, but players are beginning to look for fresh experiences. Now, a new wave of online shooters is on the horizon. As someone who has played a lot of Tarkov, I can attest to the excitement and depth this genre offers.
