New venue for Golden Joysticks 2014

The 2014 Golden Joystick Awards will take place at a new venue, MCV can reveal.

The event will be held at the London Indig02 on Friday, October 24th, with the aftershow party to take place at the Brooklyn Bowl, also in the O2 arena. Future says the party will include live entertainment.

Catering will be supplied by Gaucho.

Over the last three years, The Golden Joystick Awards have been held at Westminster’s Park Plaza hotel.

We are extremely excited to be moving this year’s Golden Joystick Awards to the Indig02," said Future’s deputy MD of film and games Clair Porteous.

"As gaming increasingly moves into mainstream popular culture, it makes sense to hold the ceremony at a vibrant, high-tech, entertainment venue. The Indig02 will be a great place to showcase the continuing innovation and diversity that the gaming industry has to offer, the food will be provided by leading restaurant Gaucho and will be topped off in style at an exclusive aftershow party at one of London’s hottest & most sought after party locations, the Brooklyn Bowl. This year’s awards will be bigger, better and bolder than ever before.”

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games.
