Don’t Miss Our Session: Real World Examples of In-Game Steering That Actually Work
November 12, 2025, 2:30-3:00 PM, Pacific Hall
With the rise of in-game steering in the U.S., many publishers are left wondering: What actually works, and what is allowed?
Of course, many publishers are keen to keep examples close to their chest — which is why in this session, speaker David Vogelpohl will share anonymized but real-world examples of in-game steering for games live in app stores to give you insights into what other publishers are doing that actually works.
Fellow panelist and gaming veteran Mike DeLaet of Ares Interactive also shares his views on steering and a crawl-walk-run approach to safely leveraging D2C for your games.
If you’re interested in seeing real-world in-game steering examples that can help inform your own strategy, don’t miss this session!
