Nintendo To Return As GamesCom Exhibitor, First Appearance Since 2019 – News

Nintendo will be attending one of the two major game industry trade shows left following the death of E3.

In a statement today, the German Game Industry Association have announced that Nintendo will be exhibiting at the 2023 edition of Gamescom, which runs in Cologne, Germany from 22 – 27 August. This is the first time Nintendo has attended the show in person since 2019, with the 2022 show the first time Gamescom had a public presentation since the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic began.

Thus far, Nintendo is the first of the major console manufacturers to commit to an in-person presence at the show. Traditionally Nintendo has skipped the Tokyo Game Show, so this will likely be the only in-person trade show they attend in 2023.<?p>
