Game initiatives are rarely announced by the country's top officials. However, this is exactly what happened in France.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Recently, Emmanuel Macron announced plans to create an international video game festival in the country.
According to him, video games are a part of French culture, and the upcoming festival is expected to become a global event for “creativity, innovation, players, and the industry.”
As rightly noted by our colleagues at 80.lv, it is possible that the announcement was inspired by last year’s success of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
