Housemarque to host session at Nordic Game 2026
Housemarque will present a session at Nordic Game 2026 centered on Saros, with a talk titled 'Lessons from Carcosa: Art & Design Direction for Saros.' Brand director Mikael Haveri, associate design director Mitja Roskaric, and art director Simone Silvestri will break down how the studio’s art and design teams collaborate to support its gameplay-first approach.
For developers, the value here is less about the game reveal and more about process: how a studio keeps visual direction, design intent, and moment-to-moment play aligned on a major project. Nordic Game 2026 runs May 26-29 at Slagthuset in Malmö, and the broader program includes a State of the Industry 2026 panel, a Developer Showcase Hall with 100+ games, and attendees from 25+ countries.
