Not all of the trailers and announcements we&#8217;ll see in the show will come from companies that paid to be in it, but many will be, so we can use the published list of SGF partners to anticipate a big chunk of the event.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"new-developers-with-unrevealed-games-6\">New developers with unrevealed games<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s a really big list, but I&#8217;ll start with just two, which stand out to me as unknown quantities: new developers whose games we haven&#8217;t seen yet.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Raw Power Games:<\/strong> According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rawpowergames.com\/games\/unannounced-project\">this Danish developer&#8217;s website<\/a>, it&#8217;s making &#8220;a vast medieval sandbox set in Europe&#8221; and aims to deliver &#8220;an immersive medieval battle experience.&#8221; The as-yet-untitled game is coming to PC first, and there are some notable designers involved, including a former lead designer on Cyberpunk 2077. There&#8217;s a twist, though: The studio is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/raw-power-games-medieval-sandbox-sgf\/\">really into generative AI<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Soft Rains:<\/strong> This is a <a href=\"https:\/\/softrains.games\/\" target=\"_blank\">new studio<\/a> headed by Joel Burgess, whose resume includes Bethesda Game Studios (Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3\/4\/76), Ubisoft Toronto (Watch Dogs Legion), and Capybara Games (Grindstone, Below).
