As the ESA and Crytek join the growing list of speakers

Another World and Heavy Rain talks at GDC Europe

Big names are set for talks at the upcoming GDC Europe event in Cologne.

Organisers have announced a lecture from Another World creator Eric Chahi on his new title, Project Dust.

Also attending will be Quantic Dream’s Charles Coutier – in a post-mortem-esque lecture on the challenge of building Heavy Rain.

A roundtable discussion is also pencilled in for the event, which will discuss how the industry can guard against censorship. Names already confirmed for the panel include Richard Taylor of the Entertainment Software Association and Crytek’s Avni Yerli.

The new names add to a growing list of key industry professionals head for the August 16-18 event, which ties in with Gamescom.
