​A LiveOps Lounge roundtable

​
Join us on 18 November 2025 at 17:00 GMT for our inaugural LiveOps Lounge event — a dedicated session exploring best practices in LiveOps for games, led by those who manage regular technical, content, and seasonal updates.

In this first session, we’ll dive into “Planning Your Next Games Update”, with insights from experienced professionals who’ve been through the process themselves.

​AGENDA:

​PANEL DISCUSSION: (40 mins)
* How far ahead do you start planning for your next major update - and why?
* What factors influence what you will deliver; and how you know you can deliver ROI?
* How do you manage scope so you don't miss release dates?
* How do you maintain player satisfaction throughout the event?

​Speakers:

• ​Sergei Vasiuk, Wargaming

• ​Bernardo Fernandes, Kabam

• ​Matthew Laurence, Avalanche Studios
  Moderator: Oscar Clark, Arcanix

​OPEN DISCUSSION: (20 mins)
An open floor for all attendees to share non-commercially sensitive insights, challenges, and questions — and to discuss best practices directly with peers.

​NOTE: This event is exclusively for professionals actively working on LiveOps games.
The session will be recorded, but only the panel discussion will be made publicly available.
The open discussion will remain private and shared only with attendees via an invite-only Discord group.
