I’ve reached the end of my DDNet Not-E3 coverage, and it’s been a reasonably good year with reasonably good games. That’s all one can ask for, no? Anyway, the last showcase is Black Voices in Gaming, hosted by Destinee Cleveland, Derrick Fields, and Justin Woodward. Black Voices in Gaming was created in June 2020, and gone from showcase to non-profit…
It’s time for the inaugural Dames 4 Games! It includes interviews with women in the games industry, women who love gaming, women you aspire to make a change. It was created to created to give women a chance to share their stories, contributions, and games. And trust me, there’s a…

On June 11, Capcom turned 40 – happy birthday Capcom! A new showcase is definitely the best way to celebrate. It features eight titles of 36 minutes, which is perfect both for the amount shown and the length of the presentation. Capcom has a pretty solid catalogue of titles, so…

Major shoutout for Ubisoft for its accessibility efforts for this Ubisoft Forward! In English there are four live streams to choose from, including English subtitles, English audio description, and American sign language (you can find them all here).

Another showcase that starts with the word “future!” This time, though, it’s hosted by Spider-Man and Mary Jane Watson. Well, kind of – the hosts are voice actors Yuri Lowenthal and Laura Bailey. This showcase lasts about 50% longer than most (it’s an hour and a half) but does take…

Devolver Digital is back and weirder than ever. This Direct’s story revolves around a (fake) mascot named Volvy, and it’s 2.0 evolution that makes up games as people suggests them. It’s honestly so bizarre, you just have to see it. I’ll be covering each of the four featured games, as…
