The Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association (CESA) announced that the Tokyo Game Show (TGS) will host its largest-ever event later this year. After a scaled-down edition last year due to COVID-19 concerns, TGS 2023 is set to reclaim its grandeur at the traditional venue, Makuhari Messe.

It was not a 100% holding format in 2022. The effects of the spread of the new coronavirus infection still remained, and the event had to be held under various restrictions such as the size of the venue, restrictions on the number and age of visitors allowed in the venue, and new visa (visa) rules for foreigners entering Japan.
Despite these restrictions, the venue was filled with exhibitors and game fans who had been waiting for the show to be held for real, and the excitement and excitement returned to Makuhari Messe.”

Scheduled to take place from Thursday, September 21 to Sunday, September 24, TGS 2023 will span four action-packed days, including both Business Day and Public Day.

Another significant development this year is the lifting of age restrictions that were in place due to the pandemic. Children under 12 years old will be welcomed back to the event, and family-friendly exhibition areas will be available to ensure an inclusive experience for everyone. International visitors will also be able to attend the event this year.

The list of official exhibitors for TGS 2023 has been revealed, featuring major players in the gaming industry. Companies such as Xbox, Sony, Square Enix, SEGA/Atlus, Capcom, Konami, and Bandai Namco, among others, have already committed to showcasing their latest creations.
