Tokyo Game Show 2021 schedule released, will be available in VR

Kawaii!

The Tokyo Game Show 2021 (TGS 2021) kicks off at the end of September, and we’ve got a tentative schedule for the event below.

The schedule was released at the same time organisers confirmed a VR version of the event will be offered for those with selected VR headsets.

“See your favorite characters right in front of you,” reads a statement on the TGS website.

“Visit booths as if you were wandering around inside the gaming world. Experience the Game Show, as a game. More freedom. More fun. With this idea, we are taking on the challenge of building the game show of future. This is what TGSVR is about. The first-ever game show in VR. It’s a grand experiment.”
