NewsNation's Gamer Galaxy is presented by Xsolla — All the Things Powering the Business of Games.

Host Cher Hwang is taking you on a trip around the world. We're taking a look at the games scene in South Korea and the United Arab Emirates — specifically in Dubai. First, we start with the Korean PC bangs, thanks to NewsNation's Robert Sherman, who takes us into one of the everyday internet cafes.

Then, Hwang sits down with the KJun, creator of the AI-based life simulator game InZOI, and chats about how the game came to be, how AI is affecting his workflow, his special meeting with President Lee Jae Myung — and an exclusive look at three secret new developments that will be added on to InZOI.

Finally, we share the conversation with Faisal Kazim, director of foresight at the Dubai Future Foundation, where he shares Dubai's plans to make its future digital.
