Together with our Webedia colleagues, we captured our largest gamescom appearance to date with the camera – from planning to the fair madness.
Here’s what happened with us at gamescom 2019: 450 square meters of exhibition space, nine hours of live programming daily, and of course games, games, games: Under the motto #gctogether, we at GameStar, GamePro, Mein-MMO, and MAX collectively put on the largest gamescom appearance in our history – just for you!
Behind such a mammoth project is also mammoth work. In our docuseries, we look behind the scenes of #gctogether:
- We eavesdrop on secret planning meetings,
- accompany the very first live stream rehearsal
- and send half the team to Cologne,
And afterwards, we also capture the fair madness on-site with the camera.

Our docuseries has a total of ten to twelve episodes (it is still being finished), and the first episode is available for free to everyone. The following episodes will be released every Friday exclusively for GameStar Plus members.
You can watch the doc here: If you enjoy this look behind our scenes, then check it out at https://www.gamestar.de/doku
