Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands Wins Bronze at AEAF Awards

We are thrilled to announce that REALTIME won Bronze at the AEAF Awards in the games trailer category for our work on the Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands trailer!

A huge thanks to our clients & partners: BOND, Gearbox Entertainment, 2K and a special shoutout to Mathematic Studio for their support.

As well as winning Bronze, we also had two amazing projects named as finalists in the awards: A Discovery of Witches Season 3 (for TV Series) and Sea of Thieves: Forts of the Forgotten (for Games Trailer)

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands

We’re very proud to share the official launch trailer for Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, a spin-off in the incredibly popular Borderlands series developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K Games. It was treat to work with such a fun character for this epic adventure full of whimsy, wonder, and high-powered weaponry! Huge thanks to our friends at BOND for bringing us on board, to 2K and Gearbox for being great clients and to the amazing team at Mathematic Studio for their support.

The games and events we’re most looking forward to in 2022

There’s no doubt the last two years have proven to be extremely difficult for the games industry, but we hope that 2022 will prove to be the light at the end of the tunnel. Now January is out of the way, we’re looking forward to the events and new releases we’re most excited about. 

Events 

Gamescom 

Returning in August, Gamescom in Germany will be the acid test as to how much progress we’ve made in the fight against COVID. Anyone who’s attended this before and witnessed to tens of thousands crammed cheek-by-jowl in Koelnmesse’s enormous halls will know that this would never be given the green light if there was any danger. Gamescom usually gives us a first look at some of the most hotly tipped games in the industry, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store. 

E3 

E3 has already announced that it won’t be an ‘in person’ event this year. Switching from a closed-shop industry only affair to an all-embracing consumer focussed event has further confused E3’s relevance. Now that we’re used to virtual events, E3 will have something of a renaissance – one that will see it transform from being a fixed event into a ‘seasonal window’ where the biggest upcoming games get their big reveals online. We are already excited at the prospect of seeing some of the trailers already in production here at REALTIME having their debut there. 

Games 

Dave Cullinane, Executive Producer 

I’m really excited about Ubisoft’s Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. Who knows, perhaps we might even get a sequel to the movie soon? There is also a new God of War game (Ragnarök) and new DLC content for Cuphead from the North American Studio MDHR. It is always exciting to see new developers with quirky game ideas succeed, so it is great to now see Cuphead expand into TV with a new Netflix series in the pipeline for 2022. 

Callum Sibley, Executive Producer 

The Nintendo Switch is the new addition to my console selection, and it only seems fitting that I use it to catch ‘em all in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. I’m also hyped that I’ll finally be able to spread the festering influence of Nurgle across the lands in Total War: Warhammer III. I’ve always been a huge fan of the Soulsborne series (& George R. R. Martin!) so I’m excited for the superb combat, sprawling landscapes and immersive lore that will inevitably be part of Elden Ring. Finally, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands – a D&D and Borderlands mashup? Say no more. 

The last two years have cemented games as being the biggest and most lucrative type of media in the world today, and it’s interesting to see how games, movies, and TV are increasingly working together to create new immersive experiences.
