Elsewhere, London Games Festival will also feature partner events with W.A.S.D, the BAFTA Games Awards and Now Play This. There will also be a Games Finance Market space to help game creators find backing, along with Ensemble — which organisers say will profile “underrepresented ethnicities working in video games”.
