Opinion: How will Project 2025 impact game developers?
The Heritage Foundation's manifesto for the possible next administration could do great harm to many, including large portions of the game development community.
The Eidos-Montreal-developed game walked away with awards in a quarter of the total categories featured at the Canadian Videogame Awards.
The 7th annual Canadian Videogame Awards honored Canadian-developed games across twenty different categories last night, with titles like Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Jotun: Valhalla Edition walking away with awards in multiple categories.
Eidos-Montreal developed Deux Ex: Mankind Divided was named the CVA Game of the Year, and was also given awards for Best Console Game, Best Game Design, Best Narrative, and Best Performance.
