Troy Baker, actor and show co-host, commented: “Last year was arguably the most challenging year for games development. Now we’re starting to see the games that will emerge this year and beyond. I’ve gotten a small *peek* behind the curtain and I can’t wait to pull that curtain back even further for you on June 13. Even better, I get to do this with someone I love to share a stage with, one of my best friends and fierce fellow actor, Laura Bailey. See you live for the Future Games Show.”
