Devolver Digital's Not E3 event.

Devolver Digital celebrates wacky indie video games coming in 2020

Devolver Digital unveiled its wacky and wondrous indie video games coming in 2020 and 2021 — all showcased in a funny Not E3 direct show Saturday.

Devolver Digital is the independent game publisher that follows its own path. With the coronavirus wiping out the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), this is what we get in 2020: a “high concept digital showcase” that is as over-the-top as Devolver can make it. In the video, “Linda” from Devolver marketing joked that people don’t play video games anymore. They just watch wacky trailers. Devolver “CEO” Nina Struthers (an actress, Mahria Zook) said people like her “tell you what to buy” and “you have been taken for a ride on a bus driven by greed.” (Hmm. I think they’re trying to tell us something about our gaming habits).
