Penny Arcade has announced that Destiny 2 director Luke Smith will kickoff PAX West 2017 with a ?Storytime? keynote. Other newly confirmed panels include Gearbox Software taking a look inside the company, Monolith Soft further detailing Middle-earth: Shadow of War, and CD Projekt RED doing a 10th anniversary celebration for The Witcher.
?Luke Smith has been around the block, and I can’t wait to pick his brain about it,? said Penny Arcade co-founder Jerry Holkins. ?I’m also going to see if they need writers over there at Bungie, because I’ve written a lot of fan fiction under various pseudonyms and I’ve got a ton of great ideas.?
Here?s the official rundown of what other panels attendees can expect to see at PAX West 2017: Smith joined Bungie in 2007, two years after publishing a feature titled ?Broken Halo: Five Ways Bungie Can Fix Halo 2? during his time as News Editor at 1UP.com. Since then, he has worked on Halo: Reach and Destiny as a systems designer, in addition to acting as the lead designer for Destiny?s raids and the creative director for both Destiny: The Taken King and Destiny 2.
Additional panels taking place at PAX West 2017 include Gearbox Software?s ?Inside Gearbox,? Monolith Soft?s ?Middle Earth: Shadow of War,? and CD Projekt RED?s ?Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of The Witcher.? A full schedule of panels taking place at the show can be found here.
