Geoff Keighley and Mark Cerny are launching a fellowship program for young game developers.

Keighley (who hosts The Game Awards and other events) and Cerny (the lead system architect for the PS4 and PS5) have made “multi-million-dollar donations” to establish the Nova Games Foundation, Keighley tells Game File. Applications will open in December 2026.
