E3 2019 Round Up – Ubisoft

The house that Rayman built opened their presentation with music from their past games which reminded me a little of a past Sony presentation which made use of an orchestra. It certainly made it feel more low key and professional… no Just Dance enthusiasts bouncing around here this […]

E3 2019 Round Up – Devolver Digital

And now for something completely different… again… Devolver returns once more for their take on an E3 showcase.
