MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
Remedy Entertainment’s Sam Lake will be a keynote speaker at the upcoming Develop:Brighton conference, which is set to return to the Hilton Brighton Metropole between July 8 – July 10, 2025.
His fireside chat will explore a long and interesting career in video games, from starting out as a writer on Death Rally in 1996 to becoming an award-winning storyteller at Remedy Entertainment. He’ll likely also talk about playing the iconic Max Payne, and his involvement on games like Alan Wake, Quantum Break and Control.
Lake will also receive the prestigious Star Award on the Wednesday evening’s Develop:Star Awards show.
