Why to visit GamesCom?
Why we all love so much GamesCom? Because it’s an event, which main goal is providing its visitors with the best opportunities possible. You get the chance to sit down and get your hands on some of the upcoming technologies, innovations, and hardware. Or play games, that are not even out yet.
GamesCom is the place where all of your favorite gaming companies such as Nintendo, EA Microsoft, Activision Blizzard, and many more make their biggest announcements of the year.
Last year the event was opened by none other than the German Chancellor Angela Merkel herself. She took the stage to say: “Computer and video games are of the utmost importance as cultural assets, as a driving force for innovation and as an economic factor, which is why I was also very pleased to come to Cologne to provide this developing industry with my recommendation.”
