See, there’s a card in Geoff’s wallet that’s got a QR code on. If you scan that when the receptionist rather rudely sorts through Geoff’s stuff then it’ll take you to a site for somewhere called Rockay City. No, I haven’t heard of it either. Given there’s a boat with EPIC GAMES STORE printed on its sail, I’m guessing 505 Games have worked out some exclusivity deal with Epic for this game. From the look of Rockay City, and Madsen showing up, I’m going to assume crime is involved somehow. I don’t think it’sControl 2, at any rate. You can watch Madsen’s good deed for the day below:

It’s that time of year again, so there’s not long until G-Keigh returns for The Game Awards. Other than whatever 505 are teasing with Rockay City, we already know that there’s going to be a “special live presentation” involvingFinal Fantasy16’s producerNaoki Yoshida. Oh, and Valve have decided to bung Steam Decks at viewers during the livestream at the rate ofone per minute. That’s 180 Decks up for grabs over the three-hour presentation.

The Game Awards stream kicks off on December 8th at 4.30pm PT and December 9th at 12.30am GMT/1.30am CET. We’ll be covering the event, but you might want to put your very cosiest PJs on if you’re staying up late over this side of the Atlantic.
