The Game Awards Statue: Unveiling Its Main Theory
The anticipation for The Game Awards is building as the show prepares for its annual showcase on Thursday. Hosted by Geoff Keighley, this event has become a significant platform for game reveals and industry announcements, especially in the absence of E3.
The Mysterious Statue
A peculiar statue has generated significant buzz ahead of the awards. On November 28, Keighley shared an image of this enigmatic statue planted in a desert landscape. The statue is adorned with a mix of animals and demons, creating an otherworldly aura that has intrigued fans and experts alike.
Recently, this statue was relocated to the venue in Los Angeles, further fueling speculation. Numerous social media posts related to the statue include cryptic phrases like “regal.inspiring.thickness” and “The [redacted] are silent. [Redacted] bleeds.”
The Fan Theories
As fans attempt to decipher the meaning behind the statue, several theories have emerged. Initial speculation pointed to potential game connections. However, various anticipated titles were later ruled out, including:
- God of War
- Elder Scrolls
- Diablo 4 Expansion
- The Witcher
- Bloodborne
- Elden Ring
- Lord of the Fallen 2
While some believe it might relate to the upcoming “Path of Exile: The Last of the Druids” expansion, launching the day after The Game Awards, this theory seems less plausible given the hype surrounding the promotion. Organizing such a high-profile campaign is not inexpensive, given the ad rates during the event.
Another theory suggests the statue may tie into a mobile game from China, which often invests heavily in substantial announcements. Yet, journalist Jason Schreier has hinted that the reveal is “very cool and many will be excited for it.”
Divinity Original Sin III Speculation
One unconfirmed theory that remains involves “Divinity Original Sin III.” The game is predicted to be an extension of a familiar series, as opposed to a new intellectual property. Developed by Larian Studios, known for the acclaimed “Baldur’s Gate” series, “Divinity Original Sin II” was released in 2017. As of now, Larian has indicated that a new “Baldur’s Gate” title is not their next project.
The connections drawn between elements from the last game and the statue’s features provide a compelling basis for this theory. While many games feature common elements, the links to animals and armor in their previous games make this option particularly intriguing.
Conclusion
As The Game Awards approach, excitement continues to grow around the statue and its potential secrets. While many speculations have been posed, only time will reveal the truth behind this captivating mystery that has captured the gaming community’s attention.
