Industry Insights: Video Editing in Gaming (2026)

The gaming industry is currently seeing a massive shift toward “Forever Games”—titles that provide value over years rather than days. This change has fundamentally altered the role of the Video Editor. In 2026, a trailer is no longer just a one-off promotional piece; it is part of a live-service ecosystem.

Video Editors are now expected to be Content Strategists . According to recent industry reports, video content remains the #1 driver for Steam Wishlists. High-performing editors focus on “The Hook”—ensuring the first 3 to 5 seconds of a video immediately capture interest. At Untold Tales, you will be at the forefront of this evolution, creating content that lives on fans’ screens for the long haul.
