The full lineup of participating publishers for Tokyo Game Show 2023 has been announced and there are some big names attending. This year’s event will see the likes of Square Enix, Capcom, Atlus, PlayStation, Bandai Namco, Konami, Arc System Works and more attend the show, which promises to be its “largest ever” event this year.
For the first time in four years, Tokyo Game Show will use the entirety of its usual Makuhari Messe venue in Japan. Last year’s event also took place in person but it was a much smaller event that used up less space in the venue due to concerns surrounding the pandemic. Most of those restrictions seem to have lifted now and it sounds like Tokyo Game Show is going really big this year with a promising list of publishers and developers showing off games.

The high evaluation of the exhibition by exhibitors and visitors alike made us realize once again the high demand and importance of holding a real exhibition under any circumstances.”
