The autumn session of the WN Conference will be held in Moscow on October 13-14. It will be held in a hybrid format: participants will be able to discuss the latest news, share expertise and attend lectures both offline and online.
After a break due to the pandemic, the WN (formerly White Nights) series of gaming business conferences returns to Moscow. It is planned that more than 1,000 participants will personally attend the event in the Mother See and another 1,500 will follow it “online”. All of them will be able to communicate through the WN Hub app.
The lecture part of the event will be held in two streams. In total, about 30 performances are planned. Not all topics have been announced yet. Let ‘s focus on a couple of interested App2Top.ru reports whose speakers and details are already known.
- “How does remastering a game affect metrics?“
This fall, War Robots received a remaster version. The developers have completely updated the graphics of the game. Dmitry Osipov, the lead project manager, is going to tell about how this affected the project’s performance.
- “Role—playing game as a service – a business case of Encased premium games”
In September, a turn-based Encased game, made according to the patterns of classic CRPGs, went on sale on Steam. It is distributed as a premium product. How did the developers manage to make money on it, even before the release, — Artem Korovkin, COO at Dark Crystal Games, will share.
- “The Middle East is an unrealized opportunity“
Arabic is one of the most used languages in the world. Nevertheless, games are rarely translated into it. According to Hussam Hammo, the head of the Jordanian team Tamatem Games, this is a big omission. Entering the Arab market can make you rich.
We also note a separate legal track, which will be held with the support of Semenov & Pevzner. Within four hours, lawyers will discuss and answer questions concerning the most relevant aspects of gaming law.
In addition, such majors as Playrix, Nexters, SayGames, Belka Games, MY.GAMES and SberGames are expected to perform at the WN Conference. Representatives of Azur Games, AppQuantum, Dankolab, The Games Fund and many other companies related to the gaming market will also make presentations.
Traditionally, an exhibition of developers will be held within the framework of the WN Conference. The organizers expect that more than 70 gaming teams will show their products to investors and publishers there.
