The Game Business is in Cologne (nearly, we’re about an hour away), and we have a bumper week of stuff going on.
You will have already seen our Gamescom preview Newsletter and Show, and our exclusive market report on the European games sector.
Later today, you will all get to enjoy our bumper Feature show featuring a games legend, while tomorrow we have a bonus interview with one of the big companies announcing titles at Opening Night Live this evening.
Then on Thursday, we (that’s me and my guest host) will share our take on Gamescom, including some of the key reveals from the event.
If you’re here in Cologne, we are also recording a live version of The Game Business Show at The Keywords Studios Supercharged Summit. We will be discussing the future of announcing and promoting video games, featuring a whole variety of media, marketing and PR legends, including former Eurogamer boss Rupert Loman (now at Just), Indigo Pearl founder Caroline Miller, CD Projekt’s VP of public relations Michal Platkow-Gilewski and studio head of ICHI Woldwide Samantha Lester. Not attending the Keywords event? Don’t worry, we’re recording the whole thing for you to watch next week.
Speaking of next week, we will begin running our Gamescom interviews featuring some of the biggest names from across Europe, plus sharing data and insight about how the overall event performed.
All of this extra coverage is courtesy of our Gamescom partners, which includes Gamescom itself, Green Man Gaming and Keywords Studios. Thanks folks!
Whether you’re out here in Cologne with us, or soaking it all up online, I hope you find it all useful.
