Game concept art is one of the most important parts of game development.  It establishes mood, setting, textures and overall storyline for the game, and provides 3D artists with a reference as to what the game itself should look like.  Videogame concept art is a dedicated profession by itself, although artists often branch into book cover art, movie concept art and other forms of digital painting.

In this post, you’ll find 30 epic examples of game concept artworks, from a variety of games from the past few years.  If you’re a fan of game art, you’ll love this collection.
