Unleashed Games CEO Brags: No White Males in Our Game

In a series of controversial posts, Unleashed Games Founder and CEO Irena Pereira sparked outrage by boasting about excluding white male characters from the company's upcoming game Haven. Pereira's comments, since deleted, highlighted a deliberate choice to feature only non-white male characters in the alpha build of the game.

Pereira's remarks emphasized the importance of representation in games, stating, "Just wait until they notice that none of our starting characters in our alpha build are white males. None. Out of 6." She defended her decision, stating that representation matters and that games should reflect a diverse player base.

Despite facing criticism for her statements, Pereira remained steadfast, even suggesting that her actions were an experiment to challenge the lack of diversity in video game characters. She faced further backlash for comments made at the Game Developers Conference '24, where she shared intimate stories about menstruation, drawing criticism for being out of touch with the industry's priorities.

Pereira's insistence on her stance has led to questions about her motives and the impact of her decisions on the gaming community. What are your thoughts on Pereira's comments and her unwavering defense of them? Join the discussion to share your perspective.
