Brie Larson is right here to present the primary award. It is for one of the best Performance and it goes to Laura Bailey for her efficiency as Abby in the Final of Us Part 2. It additionally seems her phone is dinging, which is a pleasant little contact and a reminder everybody's doing this factor from home this year.
To not mess with Geoff however I really feel like this swimsuit is just a little bland. Carn, massive G.
This is Another WORLD PREMIERE. This one is coming from The Initiative, one of many studios under Xbox Game Studios. The trailer begins with a beautifully-rendered Earth and house station. We're flying by means of a futuristic world and then... out of nowhere we hear the title Agent Dark. It is a trailer for Perfect Dark. WOW.

Another WORLD PREMIERE. I'm just copy-pasting world premiere now. I'll dream of world premieres when i sleep tonight. However here we go together with The Callisto Protocol? It looks like a sci-fi title and also possibly a horror title? There is a two-mouthed monster. It has one mouth after which another mouth below. How would you kiss it? The highest mouth first? Lots of questions right here. Kind of bought Lifeless Area vibes from it... We deserve a new Dead House.
Wait. Placing Distance studios CEO Glen Schofield is a survival horror set on Jupiter's moon Callisto. Sure. Give it to me. Callisto is one of Jupiter's forgotten moons. We always hear about bloody Io, Europa and Ganymede. Get out.
QUICKFIRE AWARDS TIME. Right here we go with 4 awards. Finest VR/AR, Best Sports/Racing, Best Action, Finest Artwork Direction.
Elden Ring grabs... not really an award but the most Anticipated Game. That is the George R. R. Martian game, from the creators of Dark Souls. Should be goooooood.

Disco Elysium: The final Cut is coming in March 2021, a free upgrade for all players. Can I name this a World Premiere? I assume so. It's a WORLD PREMIERE. Can't wait to count up these World Premieres later and completely flip out. This is all going so fast. It is insanity.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. A big one. It is for Dragon Age. I am unable to even let you know what any of this means because I don't play each single game on the planet and Dragon Age has never been a giant one for me.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. I haven't caught up. I am thus far behind. I don't even know the place to look. I am sorry. Go on with out me. Tell my dad and mom I loved them. This one known as Limitless Dungeon.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It is Crimson Desert -- Geoff tells everybody it options actual gameplay footage and it is stunning. It is an MMO with a powerful single player and we've recognized about it for some time however here comes some massive gameplay. It looks completely immaculate. Geoff was not lying. The MOUNTAINS. I need to run alongside them and dip my face within the chilly streams and produce the water to my face. It appears to be like... actual? SNOW. Let me lay in it. Mud. Ew. Bad.
We're Back TO AWARDS Here Individuals. John David Washington, who plays a character called Narrative in the movie Tenet, is giving out the award for Greatest Narrative. We are via the wanting glass here, people. That is VIDEO Video games. Alright, he proclaims the winner because the Final of Us Part 2. That is the third? award... for TLOU2? I believe so.

Is anybody studying this? Please assist me. I'm trapped in the video games gross sales and advert machine. Reggie, is that you just? Can you help me? Anyone? Is someone there? [limitless screaming]
Whoa, sorry about that. It has been a bizarre 10 minutes. We had an advert to help you cease vaping, a Call of Responsibility trailer and now we're going into a short music session to have fun Mario turning 35 years outdated.

STRAIGHT INTO WORLD PREMIERE. And it is Vin Diesel. Vin DIESEL. He is right here without any kind of fast car or a shirt. He is preventing some dudes and next minute a freaking dinosaur seems out of the forest. AND EATS A person. What the hell, this is the most effective Fast & Furious yet. IT HAS FEATHERS. It's ARK II, starring Vin Diesel. Undecided if the "starring Vin Diesel" Has to be in the title or not, however I would say so. The crew additionally announce an Ark animated sequence. A Dinosaur Anime. Dinosaurs are back. 2021, 2022. I am calling it.
The Vin Diesel recreation has memes going all over the place. It's beautiful.
TRAILER TIME. It's for Fall Guys: Final Knockout. Numerous dissonance for me with this one. It's exhibiting a winter wonderland and down here in Australia it's FREAKING Scorching. It was a hundred and twenty levels Fahrenheit. I want summer time clothes. Shorts please!
GAMEPLAY REVEAL. Odyssey: Elite Harmful means that you can explore on foot for the primary time. The song is Area Oddity by David Bowie since you simply cannot do sci-fi without Major Tom or Ground Management. It is smart. Arrives in Early 2021.
A short trailer for Checkpoint which brings psychological well being sources to the gaming neighborhood. Good.
TRAILERSsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. They will be at the bottom of the page, no world premieres in here however have a look anyway.

Josef Fares is right here now for a WORLD "Exclusive" he calls it... It's a WORLD PREMIERE however we do not thoughts as a result of he is a bundle of joy. Simply loves messing around. Chances are you'll remember him from that point he swore at the sport Awards and was instantly a star. He's revealing gameplay from It Takes Two, which seems to be quite playful. Gal Gadot would probably say it was "fun," you'd think. Geoff throws in that he is mates with Josef and noticed the sport final time he was in Stockholm... what does Geoff do all 12 months moreover play video games.
REGGIE TIME. Camera AND AUDIO IS Common Just like I might Want AND Anticipate. He's here to announce an AWARD which is the Innovation in Accessibility award. He says gaming is for everyone and gosh darn it, Reggie you're right. The award goes to The Last of Us Part 2.
WORLD PREMIERE. This one is for The Elder Scrolls Online, which is getting a brand new expansion in 2021. The enlargement is named Elder Scrolls On-line: Gates of Oblivion. The trailer is purely cinematic and does not give a lot away.
AWARDS TIME. It is the award for Greatest Mobile Game and it goes to Among Us. It is their second award of the night time. They are overwhelmed and so pleased. It was released in 2018, however I assume it's a factor this year so... you possibly can win every time. Trying forward to Pong's inevitable comeback.
It is One other WORLD PREMIERE FOR YOU AND FOR ME. This one is Monster Hunter Rise. An enormous franchise that I do not actually perceive but folks love it so, let's go for all you Monster Hunter fans. Enjoy.
We're again with Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam lead singer and he says he actually appreciates how Future Days was used in the Last of Us Half 2. I really like that he seems genuine about video video games as a medium and that was a very nice little rendition. Hoped he'd belt out Jeremy, if I'm being totally trustworthy.
I cannot get over Geoff's shoes and go well with combination. I just can't. It's bad.
WORLD PREMIERE. We're out within the Wild West, I think? Every part goes darkish. This is some guns. A man walking. Monsters being shot. This is VIDEO Games, people. There's nothing fairly like video games. Shoot a thing, hit a thing, kill a thing. You gotta adore it. It is known as EVIL WEST and it is... I mean, the title is sufficient right? Haha.

WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It's Fortnite... and HALO? Grasp Chief is becoming a member of Fortnite. There you go. He is out there tonight and there's more Halo coming as nicely. Ninja shows up in one other trailer that includes the Red vs. Blue characters Sarge and Griff. There's a brand new map: Halo's Blood Gulch is in creative mode and you can play Capture the Flag, tonight! And yet another thing... Strolling Dead characters Michonne and Daryl Dixon are also in Fortnite. Okay? Look, all of us principally live in Fortnite now. It is the Matrix.
This all feels like a fever dream to me. I haven't any idea of time or reality. Do I dwell in Fortnite... or has Fortnite lived inside me all alongside? And the buddies I made along the way? They're gone... they've disappeared into the ether. They've dissolved away; bodies of pure hype rise of their place. But they can't discuss. They only play video recreation trailers. If you're reading this, flip back now. You cannot go any deeper. Your bones will turn to dust, your teeth will fall out... the hair on your head will slide off your skull. There's nothing here but video game. Video game is the whole lot.
Everyone going okay? Nice! We're in the home stretch I think, there must be like half-hour left at most? I hope so. Each now an again we flick again to a Pokemon GO! advert referred to as Wooper Watch.
