The Game Awards have announced the Future Class of 2021, a group of fifty “inspiring” people from across the industry who represent the industry’s inclusive future.
The list was culled from over 3000 applicants, according to Geoff Keighley on Twitter; an arduous process, no doubt. Future Class is in its second year, with the first episode premiering in the all-digital version of the show in 2020.
Aimee Heart, the editor-in-chief of Gayming Mag, and Deejay Knight, a prominent Twitch streamer and instructor at Full Sail University, are among the Future Class members who have their own bios on the official website.
Of course, each member of the Future Class is deserving of their moment in the spotlight, so be sure to check out each bio. Here’s the complete list:
