Highguard studio CEO: We’d be ‘foolish’ to turn down The Game Awards

While The Game Awards is ostensibly an award show, it’s just as much a vehicle for trailers and game reveals. The 2025 show’s capstone? Highguard, a new free-to-play “raid shooter” from a studio founded by Titanfall and Apex Legends veterans. Its reveal certainly made a splash (for good and bad), but Highguard wasn’t supposed to be The 2025 Game Awards’ finale. In fact, it originally wasn’t supposed to be in the show at all.
