BigFest
Sony announced this music festival sim from developer On The Metal at its Gamescom press conference. Now we have a few more details.
BigFest puts players in the role of concert promoter who starts with rinky dink outdoor shows and elevates to crazy Lolapalooza level festivals. You decide on food choices, speaker location, music genre, and more.
A social aspect allows you to visit other players' festivals and invite them to yours. Somehow you can incorporate real unsigned bands into your shows as well, but that is yet to be clarified.
Check out the trailer below to see BigFest in action.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
