Tokyo Game Show 2023: The most important dates, games and livestreams at a glance

The Tokyo Game Show 2023 has started! We have the opening programme video and the recording of the livestream for you here.

As every year, we can expect numerous livestreams and reports from the show, most of which will be presented by the game publishers themselves. Apart from the Xbox & Bethesda Digital Broadcast, classic “conferences” have not been announced. Sony and Nintendo already held their State of Play and Nintendo Direct last week. But that by no means means that it will be less exciting. Here are some potentially interesting dates for you:

TGS 2023 Opening Show & Keynote

The official opening of the fair will take place as a livestream, but it differs from the elaborate opening shows that are common at Gamescom. Directly afterwards at 04:00 there will be the keynote. We don’t expect any game announcements, but for night owls it might be worth a look.

There could also be some differences in content.
