The NYU Game Center would like to thank our event sponsors: Fresh Planet, Take-Two Interactive, Dots, Activision, and Vicarious Visions. Their generous support makes our events possible.
Seattle? Montreal? Why is E3 held in Los Angeles? Those places hardly compare to New York City, the mecca of innovative creators, risk takers, and go getters. Diversity, technology, and art all intersect and thrive in this magical place; so why is New York often cast to the side within the gaming industry? Why aren’t we recognized more for the cultural impacts our major players make?
Join us as we delve into the complex realities of New York City’s gaming industry. From the five boroughs and beyond, we’ll discuss what it is like for developers, players, and publishers to work, thrive, and succeed in the greatest city in the world.
Panelists TBA.
