Strong early support for Gamescom 2012

Gamescom 2012 is still five months away but already the show has garnered a healthy level of support from across the globe.

Companies from 21 countries are already signed up, covering territories such as China, Iran, Israel, Korea, Czechoslovakia, Latvia and Singapore – as well as big hitters such as the UK, USA, Germany, Italy and France.

Publishers already on board include EA, Ubisoft, Bigpoint, Take-Two, Bethesda, Konami, NCsoft and Koch Media.

The show promises a broadened remit with focus on both the core and emerging markets.

In addition, Koelnmesse organisers have also received registration for 11 National Community Stands, matching the total number of similar bookings for last year’s events.

Gamescom 2012 kicks off on August 15th. You can register here.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
