9:00 AM Opening Panel Discussion – Accelerating Content Creation: Quantity & Quality Control in Live Service Games

In the fast-paced world of live service gaming, getting fresh, engaging content to players is essential for retaining their attention, but how can studios maintain top-notch quality under pressure?

Learn to adapt by:

  • Identifying your current core audience.
