Paris Games Week 2025 felt like a place where games naturally opened the door to conversation. The event was energetic and sincere, with developers and players connecting through live demos, gameplay testing, and spontaneous discussions that often turned into collaboration opportunities.
Key Insights from the Event
- Testing drives confidence: Structured QA helps detect risks earlier, prevents blockers from reaching production, and maintains predictable game stability throughout development.
- Platform complexity matters: Mobile and PC releases reveal technical nuances that only appear on real devices — performance variability, input responsiveness, and UI behavior under different conditions require platform-specific validation.
- AI needs validation: Teams are exploring AI to accelerate workflows and generate assets, but gameplay logic and AI-generated content still require human review and professional testing to ensure quality.
- Live demos reveal real issues: Watching players interact with builds on the show floor surfaces problems that internal testing often misses, turning community feedback into actionable insights.
