‘Highguard’ Did Not Pay For Its Infamous Game Awards Finale Slot
There has been a lot of speculation that Highguard, the upcoming hero shooter game from Apex Legends and Titanfall veterans, must have paid big bucks for its finale slot at The Game Awards. That made it the highest-profile debut in the biggest game showcase of the year. And it backfired. The game’s reveal was poorly received, and it also ended The Game Awards on a strange note, as that spot is usually reserved for a much-anticipated game or a big surprise.
Now, two separate sources have told me that Highguard did not have to pay for that hugely coveted spot at all. Reportedly, showrunner Geoff Keighley just really liked the game and offered it to them. There is speculation that another game may have dropped out of the spot, opening it up, but I can’t confirm that. The revelation that Highguard didn’t need to pay for the spot was previously reported by Imran Khan, which I can now corroborate.
It's hard to fault Highguard for giving the internet the silent treatment—wouldn't you?
After the free-to-play shooter's Game Awards reveal was roundly mocked, the creators opted not to engage. Can't blame 'em!

Few actually expected last year's Game Awards to close with anything as earth-shattering as Half-Life 3, but if that kind of huge announcement were going to happen during the show, that's when it would. Instead, Geoff Keighley cued up a trailer for an unknown hero shooter called Highguard. It didn't go great.
The social media reaction was instantly hostile. Highguard was received as a 'one more thing' trespasser that had claimed an unearned seat of honor, although its developer did not pay for the slot as many assumed. The reveal has become a case study in how not to announce a game, but what really got people worked up is what Highguard's developer did next: nothing.

Here are the official PC system requirements for Highguard
Wildlight Entertainment, a team of former Apex Legends and Titanfall developers, has revealed the PC requirements for Highguard. Highguard is a new free-to-play PvP raid shooter. So, let’s see what PC system you’ll need to run it.
In Highguard, players will ride, fight, and raid as Wardens, arcane gunslingers sent to fight for control of a mythical continent. They will battle Warden crews for possession of the Shieldbreaker, then break into and destroy the enemy base to secure territory in this all-new breed of shooter.
Like Battlefield 6 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Highguard will require both Secure Boot & TPM 2.0.
