“These figures confirm that Cologne’s trade fair centre, with its international network, its infrastructure and its connection to international transportation routes, is the ideal location for the games industry’s leading trade fair,” said managing director of Koelnmesse Oliver P. Kuhrt.
Among the confirmed developers for the show are Activision Blizzard, Capcom, Electronic arts, Microsoft, Square Enix, Take Two, Konami, Sony, Warner Brothers, dtp Entertainment, NCsoft and Funcom.
The show will also have gaming zones focused on different themes including, lifestyle, sport, action and adventure and E-Sport.
Finally, the show is going to trop and beat the cosplay world record, hoping to gather more than 400 cosplayers to the event. Yes, cosplayers in inhibition-free Germany!
Will Kotaku be there, oh we’ll be there alright. Though no promises about drunken renditions of Hungry Like the Wolf.
