GDC AND ANIMEXCHANGE 2023
March 20-24, 2023, San Francisco, CA

JALI’s team is excited to join our industry partners at The Game Developers Conference 2023.
This one is going to be massive!
We are headed to GDC this year with a team that has grown 3X since the release of Cyberpunk2077 and our last year’s visit to San Francisco. We also welcomed more than 25 new studio customers this past year. All of us are thrilled to have worked along with some very talented studio teams in the production of their games – from pre-production to ship – not least of which was the exhilarating collaboration on Call of Duty, Modern Warfare II.
8 new games will be shipping this year, with character performances driven by JALI’s powerful production software — and although we are not allowed to name names just yet, a couple have already received most anticipated game of 2023 nods.
JALI is also proud to announce our sponsorship and participation in this year’s Animation Exchange where the creative focus is on the craft, tech and people that power interactive animation. We will invite folks at AnimExchange to join an exclusive closed beta test of our exciting new product.
Check all the JALI events agenda below and we can’t wait to see you @ GDC!
