The celebration of the Quebec Games is currently taking place in the province, which aims to highlight local talent in the creation of video games.

Over time, Quebec has developed real expertise in the field of video games. The province has established itself in the global sphere as one of the major players in the industry for more than a decade.

Mr. Chancey also assures that far from having lost its expertise, Quebec has strengthened it in recent years.

The province has more than 300 studios, which bring together some 15,000 workers.

“We have expertise that is recognized across the planet. And then, in recent years, we have even made a major pivot towards independent studios, so today 85% of the studios in Quebec are studios that are predominantly Quebecois, and therefore we are in the process of developing beautiful intellectual property,” explains Christopher.

“We’ve been on a roll for 10 years, and it hasn’t stopped,” he says.
