@4scarrsgaming.bsky.socialMIGS 2026 has unveiled its Montréal programme!
Developers behind 007 First Light, Paralives and Deep Rock Galactic are speaking, while ESAC's Paul Fogolin will discuss the future of Canada's video game industry.
@4scarrsgaming.bsky.socialWith a National Video Game Strategy being discussed, how big is Canada's gaming industry?
Statistics Canada counted 1,628 firms in 2022. ESAC/Nordicity reported 821 in 2023–24.
I looked into why the numbers differ.
@4scarrsgaming.bsky.socialWizards of the Coast has officially opened its new Montréal studio.
The hub will focus on Dungeons & Dragons and digital games, with plans to grow to around 200 employees by 2028.
@4scarrsgaming.bsky.socialESAC president and CEO Paul Fogolin raised the idea of a National Video Game Strategy for Canada.
I looked at what that could mean for Canada’s game industry and how the UK and Australia are approaching national support.
@4scarrsgaming.bsky.socialLater this year, ESAC will become Video Games Canada. The new name gives Canada’s video game industry a more direct identity, with more details about the rollout still to come.
