I went to Tokyo Game Show 2021 held in a hybrid in Corona Evil! Digest report!

Event

The Fangler Games editorial team went to the second day of Tokyo Game Show 2021 ("TGS 2021") in Chiba, Japan, on Friday, October 1, 2021!
This year's event was a hybrid of an online venue due to the Corona disaster.
Compared to previous years, the scale of the offline venue was much smaller, but the powerful exhibits were not defeated by such adversity!

I will report on each of the featured booths, presentations, and playtests separately, but for this digest, I will report on the entire show!


Booths where you can try out the latest titles!

How was the Tokyo Game Show 2021?
The number of booths was smaller than usual, and the TGS2021 offline venue was smaller than usual, but on the other hand, I got the impression that there were a lot of "intense" exhibits!
We will continue to update individual articles and reviews of each booth as we go along, so that we can report on all the fascinating aspects of each booth!
We plan to cover the third and final day of the show, so be sure to check out Fangler Games!
