Just like E3 2021, it has been revealed that Gamescom 2021 will be a “hybrid” event the year due to the global pandemic. Gamescom has posted a full update on how everything will work which you can read below. Last year, the event was completely digital so I am intrigued about how things will work out this year.
The hybrid concept of gamescom 2021 encompasses the following physical and digital contents and formats:
- An entertainment area especially designed for a reduced amount of on-site visitors, which focuses on the testing of new games live on-site including a digital queue management system
- A further developed gamescom now as a central meeting point on the web for gaming fans from all over the globe
- Gamescom shows familiar from previous years such as the gamescom: Opening Night Live or the Gamescom studio
- An event arena that offers space for special programme items such as eSport competitions or cosplay shows
- A business area expanded to include Hall 11 in order to offer as many trade visitors optimal networking conditions also in 2021
- A first ever online B2B platform called “gamescom biz” that is based on the already tried and tested DMEXCO @home concept, which in addition to corporate and product presentations also offers lead tracking as well as extensive networking and matchmaking functions.
Sounds pretty interesting. We will be keeping you updated on all things Gamescom 2021, so keep it here.
