As a seasoned tech enthusiast with a soft spot for all things gaming, I can hardly contain my excitement as we approach the Tokyo Game Show 2024! The crisp Autumn air is filled with the aroma of pumpkin spice lattes, and it seems Mother Nature herself has set her calendar to remind us that it’s time for another round of game announcements.


Once more, we’re reaching that season. The initial Autumn leaves have tumbled, and I’ve already downed no less than ten pumpkin spice lattes. As if on queue, it’s time for the Tokyo Game Show declaration!

From my vantage point, it’s been confirmed that content from Xbox Game Studios, Activision Blizzard, and Bethesda, along with a selection of third-party games primarily hailing from Japan and Asia, will be shared. Historically, we’ve seen some exciting new game announcements at events like Tokyo Game Show (TGS). Last year at TGS 2022, we were treated to the Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch remaster release date and the launch date for Deathloop. The year prior, at TGS 2023, we saw announcements from Capcom for the Ace Attorney Trilogy and the addition of 7 new games to Xbox Game Pass. Typically, we see a blend of Asian titles, fresh trailers, and announcements for Western games at these events. Here’s hoping that this year, we might even get a port of Final Fantasy 16!
