Quantcast



European gamers often have a deep feeling of bitterness towards American gamers as we stand envious of the many amazing gaming events that we are forced to watch from afar. Yet around this time every year Germany look to give us hope by bringing us gamescom (more formally know as Leipzig Games Con due to its previous location), Europe's very own answer to E3. 

Taking place August 18 to 23, Germany plays hosts to all the latest, greatest and most promising from the gaming industry. I along with Jake Clarke, Daniel Carneiro, Ian Roberts, Maurice Tan, and Royston Malcomber will be bringing coverage straight from gamescom.

So enjoy as Destructoid UK descends upon the motherland.

The truest irony is that, of all the places, Germany will probably be censoring many of the games they're now showcasing.
