The Game Awards is generally known to showcase some pretty major announcements over the years when ads aren’t playing. But this year will reportedly have “at least two” moments that may leave you shouting “holy sh*t.” Who knows? Maybe it won’t be some Kojima thing this time.
Asspotted by VGC, Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier says that The Game Awards 2024 is shaping up to have some major reveals. In a recentKinda Funny Games Daily video, Schreier reports that people will swear like sailors at their screens during the show.
“There are at least two things that will make you guys reacting say ‘holy sh*t, I can’t believe it’s here’,” he told host Tim Gettys.
Maybe it’ll beBloodborne 2, obviously
Schreier’s claim is the kind of thing that should raise eyebrows. The show has played host to many WORLD PREMIERE trailers that took the stage by storm. In 2020, Microsoft showed up to reveal a newPerfect Darkgame. The following year, Remedy unveiledAlan Wake 2, a sequel over a decade in the making (and my 2023 GOTY), along with theElden Ringstory trailer.Hades 2andDeath Stranding 2were announced in 2022, andMonster Hunter Wildswas revealed last year.
If what Schreier said is true, then expectations should now be set fairly high for The Game Awards 2024. We don’t really know what’s in store until the show, which starts on December 12 at 4:30 p.m. PT.
Players will no doubt speculate. Undoubtedly, there are many people crossing their fingers for one particular From Software franchise. Folks have been begging for aBloodborneremaster or sequel for ages, andshow no signsofslowing down. But we may also finally hear Good and Evil 2, though it may take an act of the divine for that to happen.
We won’t know for sure until the show kicks off. Stay tuned to Destructoid for all our coverage of The Game Awards 2024.
