Finnish developer Housemarque will present a talk at this year’s Nordic Game conference, focusing on the development of its latest title Saros.
In the session ‘Lessons from Carcosa: Art & Design Direction for Saros,’ brand director Mikael Haveri, associate design director Mitja Roskaric, and art director Simone Silvestri will discuss how art and design work together to refine Housemarque’s gameplay-first philosophy.
Housemarque joins a strong line-up for Nordic Game 2026, with the full program schedule available here.
The schedule also includes speakers such as Laced Music’s Mat Ombler, marketing journalist Junae Benne, and Connecting the Pixel’s founder Martin Walfisz.
There will also be a State of the Industry 2026 panel that features experts from Newzoo, Game Advisor, Embracer Group, and Mighty Diamonds.
