LET'S KICK THIS Factor INTO Excessive GEAR.
First up, it is a brilliant Smash Bros. Final DLC character reveal. A short cinematic reveals the new character to be Sephiroth from Ultimate Fantasy VII. I didn't anticipate that. Twitch chat goes foolish. We thought Mario was dead... but he's okay. Phew.
Brie Larson is right here to present the first award. It's for the perfect Performance and it goes to Laura Bailey for her efficiency as Abby in the Final of Us Part 2. It additionally seems her cellphone is dinging, which is a nice little contact and a reminder everyone's doing this thing from residence this 12 months.
Not to mess with Geoff but I feel like this suit is a bit bland. Carn, massive G.
Here is One other WORLD PREMIERE. This one is coming from The Initiative, one of many studios underneath Xbox Game Studios. The trailer begins with a beautifully-rendered Earth and house station. We're flying through a futuristic world after which... out of nowhere we hear the title Agent Darkish. This can be a trailer for Excellent Dark. WOW.
Another WORLD PREMIERE. This one is all zombies... and it looks as if we is perhaps getting a brand new Left four Lifeless... it is truly Again four Blood. "We needed to do extra and larger," says Chris Ashton from Turtle Rock. He throws straight into gameplay for Again 4 Blood... notice: Pre-Alpha. We'll submit it down the bottom of the web page when it is prepared. It's coming in June 2021.
So, uh, anyone know when we might get another award? Ha! Simply kidding, awards, aschmords. Give me the hype trailers.
Hood Outlaws & Legends gets a trailer, then Nintendo drops an Indies showcase which ...look. I can't sustain with that guys. I am only human. I'm however one man. At this level, I'm more RSI than man. My wrist is bouncing all around the place. I need carrot cake.
AWARD TIME. We're back with some real awards and there's an important little second with Sean Murray, head on No Man's Sky. It is absolutely beautiful how far that sport has come. There was such an uproar at its release and now have a look at it, successful a Recreation Award for Finest Ongoing Recreation beating the likes of Fortnite ... Cool.
Another WORLD PREMIERE. I'm simply copy-pasting world premiere now. I will dream of world premieres once i sleep tonight. However right here we go with The Callisto Protocol? It seems like a sci-fi title and likewise maybe a horror title? There is a two-mouthed monster. It has one mouth after which another mouth below. How would you kiss it? The top mouth first? Lots of questions here. Form of obtained Lifeless House vibes from it... We deserve a new Lifeless Area.
Wait. Putting Distance studios CEO Glen Schofield is a survival horror set on Jupiter's moon Callisto. Sure. Give it to me. Callisto is certainly one of Jupiter's forgotten moons. We at all times hear about bloody Io, Europa and Ganymede. Get out.
QUICKFIRE AWARDS TIME. Right here we go together with 4 awards. Best VR/AR, Greatest Sports activities/Racing, Best Motion, Best Artwork Course.
Elden Ring grabs... not likely an award however the most Anticipated Sport. That is the George R. R. Martian recreation, from the creators of Dark Souls. Should be goooooood.
WORLD PREMIERE, Again. This one looks delightful. It is called Open Roads. Test the trailer because my palms are sore but this is from the Gone Residence staff. Will likely be legit.
Disco Elysium: The ultimate Lower is coming in March 2021, a free upgrade for all players. Can I name this a World Premiere? I guess so. It's a WORLD PREMIERE. Cannot wait to count up these World Premieres later and absolutely flip out. That is all going so fast. It is insanity.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. An enormous one. It's for Dragon Age. I am unable to even inform you what any of this implies as a result of I do not play every single recreation on the planet and Dragon Age has by no means been a giant one for me.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. I have not caught up. I am so far behind. I do not even know where to look. I'm sorry. Go on with out me. Inform my parents I cherished them. This one known as Infinite Dungeon.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It's Crimson Desert -- Geoff tells everyone it options actual gameplay footage and it's stunning. It's an MMO with a powerful single participant and we've identified about it for some time but right here comes some massive gameplay. It appears to be like completely immaculate. Geoff was not lying. The MOUNTAINS. I need to run alongside them and dip my face within the cold streams and convey the water to my face. It seems... real? SNOW. Let me lay in it. Dust. Ew. Unhealthy.
We are Back TO AWARDS Here People. John David Washington, who performs a personality known as Narrative in the film Tenet, is giving out the award for Greatest Narrative. We're through the trying glass right here, folks. This is VIDEO Video games. Alright, he announces the winner as the Final of Us Part 2. This is the third? award... for TLOU2? I feel so.

Is anyone reading this? Please help me. I am trapped within the video games sales and advert machine. Reggie, is that you simply? Can you assist me? Anyone? Is someone there? [limitless screaming]
Whoa, sorry about that. It's been a weird 10 minutes. We had an advert that can assist you stop vaping, a Name of Duty trailer and now we're going into a short music session to rejoice Mario turning 35 years previous. Oh man, the drummer was killing it!

He is combating some dudes and next minute a freaking dinosaur appears out of the forest. AND EATS A person. What the hell, this is the perfect Fast & Furious but. IT HAS FEATHERS. It is ARK II, starring Vin Diesel. Undecided if the "starring Vin Diesel" Needs to be within the title or not, however I would say so. The staff additionally announce an Ark animated series. A Dinosaur Anime. Dinosaurs are again. 2021, 2022. I am calling it.
The Vin Diesel recreation has memes going all over the place. It is beautiful.
TRAILER TIME. It's for Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. A lot of dissonance for me with this one. It is showing a winter wonderland and down right here in Australia it is FREAKING Hot. It was a hundred and twenty levels Fahrenheit. I would like summer clothes. Shorts please!
GAMEPLAY REVEAL. Odyssey: Elite Dangerous permits you to explore on foot for the primary time. The track is House Oddity by David Bowie because you simply can't do sci-fi with out Major Tom or Floor Management. It is smart. Arrives in Early 2021.

WORLD PREMIERE TIME. Right here we go again folks. This one is fast-paced. Coming 2021, it is Returnal.
I'm going to the rest room now. Sorry if I miss many things. WAIT NO REGGIE IS ABOUT To join US.
Josef Fares is here now for a WORLD "Exclusive" he calls it... It's a WORLD PREMIERE however we do not mind because he's a bundle of joy. Just loves messing round. It's possible you'll remember him from that point he swore at the game Awards and was instantly a star. He is revealing gameplay from It Takes Two, which appears to be like fairly playful. Gal Gadot would probably say it was "fun," you'll suppose. Geoff throws in that he is associates with Josef and saw the sport final time he was in Stockholm... what does Geoff do all 12 months apart from play games.
REGGIE TIME. Camera AND AUDIO IS Common Just like I might Need AND Anticipate. He's right here to announce an AWARD which is the Innovation in Accessibility award. He says gaming is for everyone and gosh darn it, Reggie you might be right. The award goes to The Final of Us Part 2.
WORLD PREMIERE. This one is for The Elder Scrolls Online, which is getting a brand new expansion in 2021. The expansion is known as Elder Scrolls Online: Gates of Oblivion. The trailer is purely cinematic and would not give rather a lot away.
AWARDS TIME. It's the award for Greatest Cellular Game and it goes to Amongst Us. It's their second award of the evening. They are overwhelmed and so blissful. It was released in 2018, however I assume it's a thing this year so... you'll be able to win each time. Trying ahead to Pong's inevitable comeback.
It's One other WORLD PREMIERE FOR YOU AND FOR ME. This one is Monster Hunter Rise. A huge franchise that I don't actually perceive however folks love it so, let's go for all you Monster Hunter followers. Take pleasure in.
We're again with Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam lead singer and he says he actually appreciates how Future Days was used within the Final of Us Part 2. I really like that he seems real about video games as a medium and that was a very nice little rendition. Was hoping he'd belt out Jeremy, if I'm being totally honest.
I cannot get over Geoff's sneakers and go well with combination. I just can't. It is bad.
WORLD PREMIERE. We're out in the Wild West, I believe? Every thing goes darkish. Here's some guns. A man strolling. Monsters being shot. That is VIDEO Video games, folks.

AWARDS TIME. It's Content material Creator of the 12 months time. "They unified us all with our shared passion for play," says Jacksepticeye. Valkyrae takes dwelling this award. Someone can have to elucidate this one to me. I am the science editor so I, uh... I am still caught up on the Ark 2 dinosaur feathers and the freakin' recreation about CALLISTO. Like, howdy!
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It's Fortnite... and HALO? Grasp Chief is joining Fortnite. There you go. He is accessible tonight and there's more Halo coming as properly. Ninja shows up in another trailer featuring the Crimson vs. Blue characters Sarge and Griff. There's a new map: Halo's Blood Gulch is in inventive mode and you may play Capture the Flag, tonight! And yet one more factor... Walking Dead characters Michonne and Daryl Dixon are also in Fortnite. Okay? Look, we all basically reside in Fortnite now. It's the Matrix.
This all feels like a fever dream to me. I haven't any idea of time or reality. Do I live in Fortnite... or has Fortnite lived inside me all alongside? And the pals I made along the way? They're gone... they've disappeared into the ether. They've dissolved away; bodies of pure hype rise of their place. However they can't talk. They only play video sport trailers. If you're reading this, flip back now. You can't go any deeper. Your bones will turn to dust, your teeth will fall out... the hair on your head will slide off your skull. There's nothing here but video game. Video recreation is the whole lot.
