Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

The game demonstrations of those eight identities were like eight different types of movies, each with its own unique characteristics and charm, capable of evoking feelings of liking in people with different tastes.

Then, Cyberpunk 2077 demos and media reviews were officially made available to the public.

Players and media will experience one of the game's identities: the street kid.

This role involves the most fighting in the game demo, offering a more intense visual experience, making it a very suitable role for trial play.

The game demonstration by the Trauma Team was a rather unique mission within that identity. In reality, the Trauma Team's daily missions weren't that intense or stimulating. Not every situation required such a large-scale operation. After all, the Trauma Team's company wasn't to be trifled with, and those who dared to go against the Trauma Team rarely ended up well.

Otherwise, if it were just about sending people to their deaths, the trauma team members wouldn't be so willing to go. On the one hand, the salary is indeed high, and on the other hand, it's not that dangerous.

Chapter 1038 Ten Times the Content, One Times the Price

The demo of Street Kids mainly revolves around a gang war, where the protagonist, along with a partner named Jack, fights against another gang.

The Trauma Team demo was like someone solving everything single-handedly, while the Street Kid demo was about team combat. The protagonist could also command his companions to some extent to take flanking maneuvers or use decoys to fight the enemy, resulting in more complex combat tactics.

Some players at the scene were clearly not very satisfied.

Because they saw other ways to play the game with different professions during the preview demo.

Some identities are even simple word games that require almost no combat, but rather the completion of language choices.

Others may become business tycoons, big shots, and then complete the main storyline.

The players at the scene clearly wanted to experience all of these identities.

The visually appealing identity of a street urchin is not enough for them.

However, Yuxing Electronics Entertainment can only offer its apologies for the time being.

Although these demos can now be provided directly to players, game promotion still follows a set schedule.

The game is expected to be officially released around 2019.

The entire marketing and promotion campaign lasted for more than a year, during which every aspect of the campaign was planned and executed.

This will maximize the amount of attention the game receives.

However, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment also promised that these identities will be made available to players in batches at different times for trial play.

As for the price of the game, it will definitely not exceed the price of currently popular top-tier games.

This is roughly equivalent to a game with ten times the size of a typical game, yet still priced like a mainstream game.

These promises did alleviate some of the players' dissatisfaction.

Then, the press conference of Surui Electronics was about to begin, which drew the attention of many players and prevented them from getting too caught up in the events at Youxing Electronics Entertainment.

"Hello, welcome to experience our latest farming tower defense game."

In the small and medium-sized game exhibition area, Aiko greeted a player with a warm smile.

"I just saw your trailer on Youxing Electronic Entertainment's website, and it looks pretty good, so I wanted to come and give it a try."

"Really? Thank you so much. Here's a small gift, please accept it."

The gift was a badge related to the game released this time.

Small items such as badges, handkerchiefs, tags, and cards are things that exhibitors often give away as gifts.

This thing can be mass-produced quickly, and the cost is low enough for large-scale production.

After accepting the small gift and thanking her, the player followed Aiko to one of the demo game machines and then tried out the latest game as instructed by Aiko.

"By the way, since you saw the latest trailer on Youxing Electronic Entertainment's site, you must have also seen the Cyberpunk 2077 trailer, right?"

"That's right, we definitely have to watch that. After all, it's the highlight of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment this year, and let me tell you, it's the best game I've ever seen in my life."

"The best game? This game hasn't even been released yet, and you're already certain it's the best?"

“Of course.” The young man chatted happily with Aiko while playing. “During the live stream, he demonstrated several different ways to play the game. Zhu Youxing personally went on stage and promised that each identity would have its own exclusive main story. Apart from the ending being similar, the other content is very different. This way, each player can potentially create a unique experience.”

"Honestly, if this game weren't still in the promotional stage, but rather in the final release stage, I think it would be a decisive blow, and other game companies wouldn't have any ability to compete."

"Wow, that's amazing!" Aiko said, feigning surprise.

As a disciple of Takeyusei, she, Kazumi, and Oto had already seen the game Cyberpunk 2077. Takeyusei had even shown them a little bit of it, so Aiko already knew a lot about the game's features.

If the officially released game has as much content as the trailer suggests, it should easily become a masterpiece.

The player then said with a regretful expression, "It's a pity that I can only try out the identity of a street kid right now, which is shooting and fighting alongside an AI computer. Actually, I don't really like this kind of pure fighting. I prefer puzzle-solving or the kind of game where you slowly develop and grow your business. I just need to manage it well, and leave the rest to my subordinates to solve the problems."

Aiko immediately said, "Then you are very suitable for our game. Our studio is very good at making games like farming and simulation management. We have several similar projects planned recently, and this will be the type of game that our studio focuses on most in the future."

"So here I am," the player said with a shrug.

At this moment, Kazumi seemed to have overheard Aiko and the other girl's conversation, and then came over and said, "Is it lively at Yusei Electronic Entertainment right now? Are there a lot of people scrambling to play Cyberpunk 2077?"

"Of course. Although I only have a trial version, and it's not the kind of gameplay I like, I have to say that even just the trial version looks really great. That's why I'm really looking forward to the full version of this game. I'm also a stock market enthusiast. I've heard that in the game you can even become the God of the Stock Market, control the stock market in Night City, and eventually even have the chance to become a real big shot and become a top player in the game."

Upon hearing this, Kazumi immediately tried to leave the exhibition area and head to Yusei Electronics Entertainment, but Aiko grabbed her by the back of the neck and pulled her back without hesitation.

"Be a good boy and promote our game!"

He Mei pouted.

"But," the player suddenly changed the subject, "I feel like it won't be as lively now, because Surui Electronics' press conference is about to start. This year, Surui Electronics has been keeping things under wraps, as if they have some big surprise in store. A lot of people are quite curious about it, and I bet a lot of people have gone there by now."

"Oh right, their press conference should be starting soon, Aiko, should I go and gather some intelligence first?"

Yin Jiang interrupted decisively: "What military intelligence are you going to gather? Do you think we can still compete with Su Rui Electronics?"

“Aren’t we also Master Zhuyou’s disciples? Since we are Master Zhuyou’s competitors, we must be his too,” He Mei said confidently.

Chapter 1039 Su Rui Electronics' Second Attack

"President, there are now more than two thousand people gathered, and more are on their way. Our strategy should be very successful this time. So many people are very curious."

Surui Electronics' president, Ueto Hayakawa, personally visited the game exhibition today.

He personally oversaw this game exhibition, determined to achieve a resounding success.

This also sends a signal to the outside world that Su Rui Electronics is also going to make some big moves and can't always be led by the nose by Youxing Electronics Entertainment.

However, when it comes to being led by the nose by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, I actually feel a bit unsure.

But in business, you don't have to worry about all that; as long as you survive to the end, that's enough.

"Have the host prepared their lines?"

"Of course, everything is ready."

"it is good."

Three minutes later, the press conference of Surui Electronics officially began, and the mystery of Surui Electronics' exhibition area was slowly unveiled.

Previously, the entire exhibition area was covered by black cloth, preventing outsiders from knowing the specific situation inside.

However, some details have already been slightly spoiled beforehand.

That is, this time, Surui Electronics also plans to announce its latest game console, and its performance and price are comparable to those of Youxing Electronics Entertainment. In addition, they have also prepared some unique technologies that Youxing Electronics Entertainment does not have.

By this time, nearly three thousand players and spectators had gathered, and they all arrived at the front of the press conference venue. The host on the stage slowly walked out.

As soon as the host walked out, he was greeted with cheers from some players.

His name is Yoichi Okawa. He is a veteran employee of Surui Electronics and one of the producers of Surui Electronics' well-known Sun Knight series.

The Sun Knights games he produced also had a good reputation, and in the hearts of players, Yoichi Okawa's status was comparable to that of the game producers at Yusei Electronics Entertainment.

His appearance suggests that a new Sun Knight may be released this time.

The current player base of Sun Knights has reached at least two million.

This means that as long as a new Sun Knight game is released, at least two million people are very likely to buy it, which is like having a safety net.

As long as the product isn't too bad, Sun Knight will be one of Suri Electronics' money-making tools.

As expected, Yoichi Okawa announced the upcoming release of his latest work, Sun Knight, as soon as he took the stage.

However, this time Sun Knight will be an exclusive title. On stage, he promised that it would be exclusive to his own game console for at least a year. As the producer, he couldn't guarantee the remaining time, as it was a matter for company decision-making.

However, this is enough, as many players who like the Sun Knights series still own a Sun Knights console.

Then, he solemnly announced several game projects that he had participated in supervising, which was essentially using his fame to increase the attention of other projects.

This is similar to the effect of having Yusei Electronic Entertainment's games supervised by Takeyusei.

However, it's clear that Yoichi Okawa's appeal can't compare to Yusei Take, but it's better than nothing.

Then there's the standard shooting, racing, and ball game from Suri Electronics.

A first-person shooter game in the modern warfare genre.

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has made a lot of money from the game Counter-Strike and has also developed very well in e-sports, which Surui Electronics is very envious of.

The market resources derived from esports are actually quite good.

Surui Electronics already manufactures various electronic products, so it wouldn't be difficult for them to open a branch specializing in e-sports equipment, which would further expand their revenue streams.

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's sole aim is to promote esports, and incidentally, to create a league system that will make esports a mature and globally recognized competition system.

Surui Electronics, on the other hand, is more realistic; they hope to extract more profits from esports.

Then there's the FIFA World Cup brand license that Surui Electronics has always owned. They follow the example of Youxing Electronics Entertainment by using the year as the name for the iteration, and release a new game every year to compete with Youxing Electronics Entertainment. The football games launched by the two companies can be said to have their own strengths, and they also complement each other's strengths.

Players are happy because this means they can play two football games, and the two games are constantly competing in a healthy way, which is making the development of football games flourish.

Then there's basketball games. Suri Electronics didn't get the license from the well-known NBA, but they found other channels, just like how Youxing Electronics Entertainment took a different approach and approached club event groups. They also came up with a licensed name and then developed corresponding basketball games.

There's also 3D racing, a game that was released almost simultaneously with Need for Speed.

Both games share many similarities in terms of graphics and gameplay, focusing on thrilling races. When Yuxing Electronic Entertainment temporarily abandoned the Need for Speed ​​line, it seemed that players' only option was 3D racing.

As for Forza Motorsport, because the game itself is quite hardcore, it's unlikely to be very popular.

This actually gave 3D racing a chance.

However, the average sales of 3D racing games are not particularly high, hovering below one million. Even without similar competitors, the current era has seen another type of game exploiting the market: sandbox open-world games.

In sandbox open-world games, especially modern games like GTA, car-related content is indispensable.

In GTA, besides causing trouble and traveling around, you can also race cars, motorcycles, and planes. The range of activities is much wider than in a simple racing game, so even without competitors, 3D racing games don't fare particularly well.
