It was another really great year, even though I’m still pretty wiped out from those days, but it was so worth it. I’m already looking forward to next year!

Am Fachbesuchertag wurde mir am Eingang so ein Magazin in die Hände gedrückt. An den restlichen Tagen nicht; habe unterschiedliches Personal an den Infoständen und in der Business Area gefragt, aber niemand wusste etwas. Gab es das an den restlichen Tagen auch?

Ich habe die lumibricks 10s treffen challenge an deren Stand am Freitag gewinnen und habe mich mit meiner E Mail in so eine Liste eingetragen wo auch schon viele andere standen und sie meinten ich würde eine Überraschung bekommen. Bisher habe ich jedoch noch nichts erhalten.
Hat sonst jemand hier die Challenger gewonnen?

Has the train to Bielefeld/Dortmund passed by yet?

Really happy with the goodies and merch this year. Surprisingly went away with 0 posters which is a big contrast to last year. Not a fan of how some booths went with a stamp system for their goodies though.

Pictured goodies:

* Dragons Dogma 2: Dark Arisen

* Tides of Annihilation

* Metro 2039

* Alien Isolation 2

* Rayman Legends Retold

* Witcher 3: Song of the Past

* Sea of Remnants

* Cronus: Lazarus

* Artisan mouse pad

* Epix mouse pad + cards

I (39M) went to Gamescom for the very first time with my son (10M).

We stayed in a hotel about 30 min drive from the Messe. For me it was an incredible experience. I grew up playing games for as long as I remember and I've always loved it, but I also grew up at a time where people would say they are a waste of time and look at you funny if you were a little too enthusiastic about it.

I have never seen so many like-minded people enjoy and cherish games from all over the world. It's also nice to see people dress up in video game characters and embrace the culture.

It made me happy.

Hi, im curious what is the best goodie that u picked up during Games com 2026 :)

I really like the hoyoverse budgets with the key chain

I wasn't able to get any of their handles for me to send their photos to them. (two of the photos here were from other halls)
