Co-Op Mode: On - Rethinking How We Make Games Together

As games evolve in scope, structure and longevity, collaboration across studios is no longer the exception - it is the reality. Yet many teams still approach co-development as a support function rather than a core creative practice.

This roundtable brings together developers and leaders working across studio boundaries to explore what it really takes to build games together. Moving beyond traditional outsourcing models, the discussion will focus on collaboration as a deliberate design choice - one that impacts culture, leadership, pipelines, and creative ownership.

Rather than presenting a single solution, this session is designed as an open exchange of experiences, challenges and emerging practices from teams actively working in collaborative setups today.
