As soon as this year’s E3 is over, gaming enthusiasts from the German-speaking region are already looking forward to the next fair: gamescom 2014 is just around the corner! The gaming fair takes place in the cathedral city of Cologne from August 13 to 17, 2014, inviting thousands of fans to check out the booths of game companies, participate in exciting events, grab goodies, try out games, and much more.
Blizzard is in da house!
Of course, game developer and publisher Blizzard is also on site and joins the many other exhibitors. This time, the show and the activities Blizzard offers during gamescom 2014 are said to be quite extensive.
The Blizzard booth is expected to be bigger than ever before in 2014. The company also claims to have a “fantastic array of entertaining activities”. During the four open visitor days, you can try out the following games, for example:
- World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor
- Heroes of the Storm
- Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition for PlayStation 4
- Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft
Besides that, a large stage is a must. Here you can expect both musical performances and a competition in the dance and costume category, which must not be missing.
Quiz and Birthday
Additionally, you can also look forward to quiz games at regular intervals during gamescom 2014, where you can win “great prizes”, as they say. Soon there will be more information about the costume competition.
But that’s not all. Blizzard is also celebrating the tenth anniversary of World of Warcraft this year. Therefore, a splendid gallery must also be included, where the company has compiled official and also fan-created artworks. When this gallery will be released is still uncertain. In general, Blizzard will announce many more details about gamescom 2014 in the coming weeks, including the schedule at the fair, so you know exactly when which actions and events take place.
