We had such a blast at the Tokyo Game Show. 🤘 Until next time. #WasteCreative #KeywordsStudios
Tokyo Game Show 2024 might be behind us now, but the excitement is still palpable. 🎮✨ The show hosted 985 companies from 44 countries, exhibiting games across all platforms, from console and PC to VR and smart devices. Guillaume Hansali, Country Manager Japan, shares his thoughts: "Games have many shapes, but they have no frontier. The world is our playground, and Keywords Studios is uniquely positioned with its global presence. While standing proud with our vibrant booth, we couldn't help but feel humbled surrounded by household names that have built the industry we love. What a great reminder of how privileged we are to be an active part of it. We don't take it for granted. We wouldn't be here without the trust of our clients, the support of our partners, and the dedication of our teams." A big thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, booked meetings, and shared insights. We're excited about the future of the industry and look forward to being a part of its next phase of evolution. 💙 #TGS2024 #ImagineMore #GamesIndustry
