Furthermore, she is also the recipient of the New York Game Critics’ Andrew Yoon Legend award this year.

Rumours have been circulating that Google is going to have a massive announcement at the upcoming Game Developer Conference. Images of a controller was even discovered which could be part of the “Project Stream” service.

The company has attended GDC before in some capacity. Although this will be the first time they are holding a keynote.

When is GDC 2019 Taking Place?

The 2019 Game Developers Conference starts on Monday, March 18 and will last until Friday, March 22, 2019.
