Gamescom 2020, Europe’s annual video games convention, has … and this really is no surprise, been cancelled but it will be converted into a digital event.
Nationwide ban of events
This comes after Germany placed a nationwide ban on major events until August 31, 2020 to stop the spread of the coronavirus. More details will be revealed in the future.
But digitally
Even though not all details are known at present, the nationwide ban on major events until the end of August will also affect the planning for #gamescom2020.
But furthermore: gamescom 2020 will definitely take place digitally!
