Keighley says that he’s planning a “cross-industry showcase.” There’ll be “world premieres, trailers, news and updates from the world’s top game developers and platforms”. Day of the Devs: Summer Game Fest Edition, co-produced by Double Fine Productions and iam8bit, will be happening immediately with a focus on “creative and diverse games”.
