What You Need to Know:
- TOKYO GAME SHOW 2020(TGS2020), scheduled to be held from September 24 (Thu.) to 27 (Sun.), 2020, is now planned to take place online. TGS2020, which is usually held at Makuhari Messe, is cancelled.
- Due to the outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) on a global scale and the situation remains unpredictable in Japan as well, the organizer and the co-organizers have reached this decision after a long consideration to place the utmost priority on the health and safety of visitors, exhibitors and stakeholders. The TGS staff ask for your kind understanding and cooperation.
- More information will be announced as needed on the official website( https://tgs.cesa.or.jp/en/ ) and press releases from late May. For now, it seems like an online event will be planned instead which isn't too bad, but for those who wanted that true TGS experience will likely need to wait until next year...
