It has grown to be the Southeast Asia’s largest gaming festival. This year, Online Station collaborates with SHOW NO LIMIT CO., LTD. to revive the iconic event under the theme “Come Back.” The show’s 2022 edition introduces two new zones: the NFT & Metaverse zone, which capitalizes on the growing popularity of cryptocurrency; and the Business Matching zone, which connects game publishers, developers, gaming-related media, and agencies in order to enhance business opportunities. Thailand Game Show 2022 is expected to draw over 180,000 gamers and interested individuals, a 28.83% increase over the last event, and generate revenue of 300 million baht. TGS will make a significant contribution to the quest to establish Thailand as Southeast Asia’s gaming hub. In addition, it will encourage gaming-related careers and enterprises, such as gamers, esports athletes, game content creators, and game developers, thereby increasing their international prominence.”
Pongsuk Hiranprueck, CEO of SHOW NO LIMIT CO., LTD., disclosed that, “at the event, the first collection of Thailand Game Show NFTs, which collaborated with renowned artists and influencers, will be unveiled as “Rare Items” for fans to acquire. We intend to produce other editions of these one-of-a-kind Thailand Game Show NFTs in the future. Moreover, the gaming zone and lifestyle zone, which are considered the core of the TGS, will continue to be highlights of the event. This year’s facility will be expanded to accommodate 67 booths from participating developers and companies. Attendees will be met by a plethora of new games, gaming gear, information technology items, and, of course, cosplayers. The customary TGS Cosplay Contest will be held at the event as well, with audition rounds done monthly. Distinguished cosplayers will compete for the prize of 300,000 baht in cash rewards. Another draw is the “Meet & Greet” event, which will feature celebrity gamers, with Vtubers making their first appearance on the main stage. This year, TGS has chosen to relocate to a larger venue to accommodate a large crowd, relieve congestion during the event, provide a more convenient transportation and ensure a proper “Return” of the renowned show. Therefore, the event will take place at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, which is also a partner of Thailand Game Show in 2022.”
