The buzz is real. From October 16–19, the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok transforms into Southeast Asia’s ultimate gaming playground. Two major events—Gamescom Asia and Thailand Game Show—are joining forces, and you’ll want to be there. Expect industry heavyweights rubbing shoulders, epic reveals, and more than 80 playable games waiting for you to dive in.
A Gathering of Industry Minds
If you’re in the business side of things, this conference is your ticket to fresh insights. Over 70 speakers from 20 countries will fill the stage. Glen Schofield, mastermind of Dead Space and The Callisto Protocol, kicks things off. Then there’s Goverdhan Gosavi from Xigma Games, John “Bucky” Buckley of Pocketpair, and Alex Karpazis at Ubisoft. Keep an eye out for potential big ideas: Will it be Bethesda’s Simon Alty sharing APAC strategies or Marvel Games’ Danny Koo on bridging comics and gameplay that sparks the next industry shift?
Inside the Business Playground
From October 16–17, the dedicated business area hums with activity. Think of it as speed-dating, but for publishers, investors, dev studios, and service providers. You might find yourself pitching to the Invest Circle one moment and scouting student talent at the Thailand Game Talent Showcase the next. There’s also a VIP mixer, a live pitch competition, and country pavilions representing 18 nations. It’s a whirlwind of rooms, booths, and dedicated expo stages—and yes, it can feel overwhelming if you don’t map out your priorities in advance.
Successfully balancing this intense business environment with the lively public side—cosplay on the right, boardroom vibes on the left—is where the magic happens..
Game On: Over 80 Playable Titles
For gamers, this is pure adrenaline. Publishers like Mytona, HoYoverse, Bandai Namco, Daedalic, and Ubisoft will let you try demos before anyone else. Nintendo and The Pokémon Company rarely open that door—so imagine squaring off in a live Street Fighter 6 tournament or wandering the indie area, where at least 80 student and small-studio projects beckon. You could discover the next viral sensation in a dingy corner or get first dibs on a major AAA reveal under the bright lights of the main entertainment zone.
Hardware buffs aren’t left out, either. AMD, Intel, Predator, SteelSeries and more will show off cutting-edge rigs and peripherals—because what’s a new game without the perfect setup?
More Than Just Games
This show isn’t just about pixels and polygons. Meet your favorite cosplayers, hang out with voice actors, or catch a live performance on the main stage. There’s a Thailand Game Award ceremony honoring local talent—and trust me, that student-made game might outshine the big studios. Non-stop content runs across three days, mixing gaming challenges, surprise appearances, and segments designed just for you. Ever wondered what it feels like to be onstage in front of thousands? Here’s your chance, whether as competitor or cheerleader.
Lock in Your Spot
Tickets go on sale September 1. Will you grab the four-day pass and pace yourself, or blitz through in two days of late-night sessions and coffee-fueled meet-ups? Whatever you choose, plan ahead—some panels sell out fast. And hey, if you’re on the fence, remember: this fusion of Gamescom Asia and Thailand Game Show 2025 might be a once-in-a-lifetime collision of two massive communities.
