What’s a Leipzig? The Leipzig GCDC, based in Leipzig, Germany, is currently the largest gaming convention in Europe.
And given that the E3 is now an invitation-only affair (Pffffft!), Leipzig has become the biggest game convention in the world, dwarfing even the revered TGS, and bagging a mind-blowing 183,000 visitors, 2,600 press personnel, and 368 exhibitors.
In related news, LMI has also announced it’s planning to launch a similar convention in Asia. Titled the Games Convention Asia, this event will take place at the SUNTEC Singapore International Convention and Exhibition Centre from September 7-9. They’re expecting around 105,000 visitors and 200 exhibitors for this event, though given the attendance for Leipzig last year, we’re expecting bigger numbers.
