We tell stories over campfires, cocktails, loudspeakers, and controllers. Storytelling is one of the truest expressions of the human experience, and serves a key role in gaming. We at PlayStation want to celebrate this artform at PlayStation Experience on December 5th.
It is my great pleasure to invite you to The Future of Storytelling panel, where we’ll hear from an incredible lineup of guests that have each contributed to this timeless art through various applications of technology and gaming. What inspired their craft during childhood? How did they build their tales on PlayStation? And what will they do next to drive the entire art forward? We’ll ask these questions, and more.
Here’s everything you need to know, at a glance…
- What: The Future of Storytelling
- Where: San Francisco, CA — Moscone West Hall, 3rd Floor
- When: Saturday, December 5th. 6:00PM Pacific
- Who:

If you’ve ever played a game with a great story, then this is a panel you don’t want to miss. It’s not every day that you bring some of the most experienced storytellers in the business into one room.
Remember, you can still buy tickets to PlayStation Experience and reserve discounted hotel rooms right here. I hope to see you there!
Hi Ryan!
This sounds like a really great panel, and will help highlight just how far games have come. Congrats for moderating it :-).
As I won’t be able to see it in person, might there be an opportunity for a livestream day of, or a replay later?
Thanks as always for the support! Sorry to hear I can’t see you in the flesh!
No details at present about video/streaming and what not, but we hope to have more idea on those possibilities soon…
