Taking a quick look at future endeavors, Game Con Canada hosted its inaugural GCC Studio Showcase featuring Devolver Digital, Bloober Team, and several others.
Returning for its third iteration, Game Con Canada takes place from June 13 to 15, offering a venue for gamers to engage in video and board games, cosplay, participate in workshops, and meet special guests. On the first day of the expo, with CGMagazine’s Dayna Eileen as part of the panel, Game Con Canada hosted its first annual GCC Studio Showcase, providing an exclusive preview and highlights of titles from Focus Entertainment, tinyBuild, Devolver Digital, and Bloober Team.
The initial GCC Studio Showcase was held on the Intel Gaming Mega Stage, showcasing forthcoming titles from four prestigious studios, alongside Hollywood celebrities, influencers, and developers. For those who couldn’t attend or prefer a summary, here is a list of studios that took part in the Game Con Canada Studio Showcase to unveil their games:
tinyBuild
Beginning the GCC Studio Showcase, tinyBuild revealed two forthcoming games. The first was Sand, an open-world PvPvE extraction shooter created by Hologryph and Towerhaus and published by tinyBuild. Set in 1910 after the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s colonization of space, players navigate the perilous planet Sophie on massive walkers known as Tramplers. To thrive, players must enhance and upgrade their Tramplers, combat other players and creatures, and explore to collect essential resources. Sand is set to launch in 2025, with a wishlist currently available on Steam.
The second title introduced was Kingmakers, crafted by Redemption Road Games and published by tinyBuild. As elite agents, players go back to 15th-century England to alter history and avert a future apocalypse — either solo or with up to three friends. Carrying the fate of the world, players wield a range of military weapons and vehicles to confront AI-led medieval forces while devising strategies against varying unit types. Kingmakers Early Access launches on Steam on Oct. 8, 2025.
Focus Entertainment
Created by Hutihut Games and published by Focus Entertainment, Void Crew is a co-op roguelite game set aboard a spaceship. Played solo or with up to six friends, participants adopt different roles on a customizable spaceship, complete missions, and fend off hostile aliens and space pirates that test your untrained crew’s limits. In addition to facing threats, players can invest time in upgrading their ship and personalizing their characters. Scheduled for release on Steam in November 2024, Focus Entertainment attended the GCC Studio Showcase to promote the game and host a Void Crew giveaway.
Devolver Digital
Crafted by Pigeons at Play and published by Devolver Digital, the publishing team presented a co-op first-person shooter, Mycopunk. Joining the game solo or with friends, players become part of the Atlas Hazard Crew, a team of robots tasked with eradicating fungal infections from the galaxy. During their mission, players can select and enhance various weapons, create distinctive builds, and relax in an orbital dropship brimming with toys and games. Mycopunk is on its way soon, with a demo currently available on Steam.
Bloober Team
From the creators of Silent Hill 2 (2024), Bloober Team has unveiled insights into their upcoming third-person sci-fi survival horror title, Cronos: A New Dawn. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, players embark on a mission to salvage the future by protecting the past, seeking and gathering the essence of those lost during the apocalypse. Although challenges abound, players must manage resources, explore the New Dawn area, battle creatures, and confront the hauntings of essences trapped within their suit. Cronos: A New Dawn is set to launch in fall 2025 on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5.
From June 12 – 16, 2025, Game Con Canada Powered by TELUS will feature a Steam page throughout the expo, highlighting games showcased at the GCC Studio Showcase.
