Sony's Return to Tokyo Game Show 2024 After a Four-Year Hiatus
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) is making a highly anticipated comeback to the main stage of the Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2024, marking their first full participation since 2019. This significant return is confirmed on the official TGS website, listing SIE among the 731 exhibitors occupying a substantial presence across multiple booths in Halls 1-8. While Sony had a limited presence at TGS 2023, showcasing indie titles in the Demo Play area, their return to the main exhibition signifies a major commitment to the event.
A Major Player Among Industry Giants
Sony will be joining a roster of prominent industry players, including Capcom and Konami, at the heart of the convention. The exact nature of Sony's exhibition remains undisclosed. Considering their State of Play presentation in May 2024, showcasing several 2024 releases, many of which will likely be available by the time TGS rolls around, their presence is highly anticipated. Furthermore, Sony's recent financial reports indicate no plans for major new franchise releases before April 2025, adding intrigue to their TGS participation.
TGS 2024: An Unprecedented Scale
The Tokyo Game Show, one of Asia's largest video game exhibitions, will be held at Makuhari Messe from September 26th to 29th. This year's event promises to be the largest yet, boasting 731 exhibitors (448 Japanese and 283 international) and a staggering 3190 exhibition booths.
International attendees can secure their tickets starting July 25th, 12:00 JST. Options include a 3000 JPY one-day pass or a 6000 JPY Supporters Club Ticket, which includes a commemorative T-shirt and sticker, and priority entry. Visit the official TGS website for complete ticketing information.
