GamesRadar is delighted to confirm our first flagship games showcase of 2024, the Future Games Show Spring Showcase, which will be broadcast on Thursday, March 21.
The Future Games Show is a multiformat games broadcast with a mission to help viewers discover something new. In 2023, we were thrilled to bring you exclusive videos and world premieres from titles such as Pacific Drive, Dustborn, and Resistor.
Previous shows have featured games such as Immortality, The Case of the Golden Idol and an action RPG called Palworld, that you might have heard of. Our showcase is where you’ll get the inside scoop on the most exciting upcoming games, from experimental indies to AAA blockbusters.
Our Spring Showcase will debut a new post-show, presented by FGS hosts and popular creators, with exclusive developer interviews and world premieres. After the successful launch of our VR Spotlight in 2023, look out for a new Mobile Spotlight section that will highlight the best mobile and handheld games.
The Future Games Show accumulated over 120 million views in 2023 across all shows and platforms, and we’ve featured over 500 amazing games since the event’s inception in 2020.
The Future Games Show Spring Showcase is the first of three digital events planned for 2024. Further FGS broadcasts are set for June and August later this year.
Read on for details on how to take part in the Future Games Show, including how to nominate our game for future events and join our co-streaming program.
