This year's non-E3 event, Summer Game Fest 2024, kicked off yesterday with a big presentation hosted by Geoff Keighley, but the excitement continues as more developers show off their games in their own smaller presentations. The Latin American Games Showcase was one such event featuring exclusive trailers and premieres from Latin American game developers. And what amazing games were shown!
The Latin America Games Showcase showcased around 70 games over the course of an hour and a half presentation. There were quite a few games, so below we've listed some of the games we think were the highlights of the showcase. But frankly, we felt that almost every game featured was worthy of attention, so we recommend checking out the entire showcase if you have the chance.
