Summer Game Fest Live will end its two-hour run with a look at a single-player, narrative-focused game, producer and host Geoff Keighley has confirmed.
Keighley shared the news shortly before the show was set to begin, and did not elaborate on what the game could be, but the word “announcement” suggests it should be a brand-new reveal rather than an updated look at an already-announced game.
“Thank you for the feedback,” Keighley added in the post, which looks like a cheeky nod to the … mixed reception Highguard’s announcement got during last year’s The Game Awards. The multiplayer game, which was released not long after its announcement, struggled to find an audience and was completely shut down a short time later.
Typically, the “one more thing” that ends presentations of this magnitude are either much-wishlisted sequels from established franchises or brand-new games from acclaimed studios. It remains to be seen exactly what Keighley has in store this year, but with his affinity for Muppets, perhaps we can finally get that dark, brooding Kermit game we’ve all wanted for so long.
