Video game publisher and developer Cygames, Inc. has announced its plans for Evo 2024 in Las Vegas.

The Cygames booth will be operating from July 19th to 21st—the full duration of Evo 2024—and will feature the following attractions:

  • Update 1.50 Preview Demo, Including Upcoming Playable Character

Visitors to the Cygames booth will have the opportunity to play a preview demo of update Version 1.50. In addition to balance changes for existing characters like Gran and Lucilius, the update will also feature a brand-new character to be revealed for the first time at Evo 2024.

  • Autograph Session with CyDesignation’s Hideo Minaba

The Cygames booth will be hosting an autograph session with Hideo Minaba, president of CyDesignation, who oversaw the character designs for Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising.

Special signing opportunities

Born in Tokyo on August 2nd, 1971, Minaba began his career at Square Co., Ltd. at the age of 19. He rose through the ranks to eventually become the art director of the Final Fantasy series. After going independent, he helped found Designation Co., Ltd. and CyDesignation Inc. Here he served as character designer for the Granblue Fantasy series in addition to his many other roles.

The booth will also host another autograph session featuring Tetsuya Fukuhara, creative director on GBVSR, and Motohiro Okubo, CEO of Cygames America. Signable cards, created especially for Evo 2024, will be distributed at both sessions.
