The future looks big, bright, and interesting for video game packaging, from more minimalist packaging to more sustainable and eco-friendly packaging to more interest and demand for custom packaging. "Fuxelball Austin FC Edition" takes two trends: more minimalist and demand for custom packaging to create a custom and unique PlayStation 5 "Fuxelball Austin FC Edition" bundle for those who are both Austin FC and PlayStation fans.
Project Summary:
Based on a trend report about the future of video game packaging, I chose one or more trends I predicted and created a product.
Create and design a product based on those trends and present my product at the end.Process:
Choosing My Trends I Predicted:
After creating my trend report on the future of video game packaging, in which I predicted three trends, I chose two to use when creating my custom product. Those trends are more minimalist designs and more custom packaging.
Ideas and Concepts:
Now that I had determined which predicted trends I wanted to use when creating my product, I began to think of ideas of what I could create, and after thinking of ideas, one stood out to me: pixel art. Specifically, create a PlayStation 5 bundle for a made-up pixel-based soccer game called "Fuxelball Austin FC Edition." This idea is because pixel art is one of the most basic forms of art and can be minimal, and because Austin FC is my local soccer team. Since they already have a visual identity it would allow me to create the custom theme design for the packaging, console, controller, etc.

Further Developing My Designs:
As I further developed my designs based on suggestions and feedback, like adding more color and design element variations, I would present my final product and a final presentation.
