"Every Galaxies show is built on one belief: that a brilliant game deserves the spotlight no matter who made it – a global publisher or a team of one," Thomas stated. He added that the upcoming showcase is their "most vibrant show yet" and expressed hope that attendees will enjoy discovering new titles.
