Someone split the pics, I have not played a whole lot of the last two God of War games, but does this scream God of War to you?

The whole thing looks a bit like FromSoftware, some details not so much. Hyped by Geoff its probably some knockoff like Lords of the Fallen 3.

If it’s not Elder Scrolls 6 related I don’t know. It could be any dark fantasy game.

It could be that Switch 2 exclusive yeah, Dustbloods or something?

True true!

This is a real statue right? Could Geoff have just been there where it was and thought it looked cool? :rofl: I mean is there a particular reason why this statue is supposed to be related to an upcoming game?

It’s part of the pre-hype for the Game Awards. But yeah, knowing Geoff, it’s probably some random game that he is payed to promote before the show.

I guess it’s working because no one knows what it’s supposed to be. It could be literally any dark fantasy game and there’s been a lot kn recent years ! It could be a Souls clone or whatever.

With the Crocodile I guess it could be Egyptian? God of War basically finished in Norse mythology, so it’s possible we’re seeing them move on to Egyptian? But either way it feels too soon. If it’s a new IP and everyone raises their pitchforks I will laugh.

Ah okay. I haven’t really been following it and thought it could have just been some piece of public art that he found. :sweat_smile:

By that case it could be GTA6.

Hey last year Jez said there was an internal build of the game in the offices of Xbox leadership of the Elder Scrolls VI. Todd said they are playing the game everyday. You never know

Good one.

I’m not sure the Game Awards are as big as many think and they certainly don’t seem to have the influence as well. Keighley keeps touting huge views but I don’t think this award breaks into the casual or zeitgeist sphere. At most the games featured get a little boost and no more. Look at Astrobot sales pretty weak for a game that had its prequel bundled in every PlayStation and then winning GOTY. So far, I think Xbox has mainly used it for new reveals of new IPs and Game Pass marketing. The big known games have usually avoided it as the place of reveal but maybe to show new IPs and DLCs and market mobile.

Now this is NOT aimed at anyone here, just Geoff, insiders and ESPECIALLY grifter/influencers. My general attitude towards all Game Awards phony hype and rumors is…

Hope it gets in your friggin eye!
