– Experience premium marketing material on a consumer-level once thought impossible –
This year’s Devolver Direct showcase continued the label’s annual tradition of overpromises with new game debuts, gameplay reveals, release date announcements, and an inexplicably complex narrative woven into its marketing centerpiece. The industry-shaking revelations included the premiere of Shadow Warrior 3 gameplay, the reveal of 2D action platformer Olija, and imminent release dates for the long-awaited Carrion, Fall Guys, and Serious Sam 4.
The overrated independent publisher also launched Devolverland Expo, the most advanced marketing simulator ever designed by humankind. Conceived, created, and filled with contempt by Devolver Digital CEO Nina Struthers during this year’s fourth-wall shattering Devolver Direct, Devolverland Expo takes all of the in-your-face stink and discomfort, pomp and circumstance of a crowded high-rent convention hall and stuffs it – for free – into the general public’s sweaty, grateful paws. You’re welcome.
