Taipei Game Show
Taipei Game Show (Chinese: 台北國際電玩展; pinyin: Táiběi Gúojì Diànwán Zhǎn), commonly known as TGS or TpGS, is an annual video game trade show and consumer exhibition held at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center in Taipei, Taiwan. It is organized by the Taipei Computer Association and typically takes place in late January or early February each year, coinciding with the Lunar New Year in Taiwan shopping season. Since its inception in 2003, the event has grown into one of Asia’s largest gaming conventions, attracting major publishers, indie developers, hardware manufacturers, and fans from around the world. According to Focus Taiwan, the attendance exceeded 370,000 visitors with 346 companies from 30 countries in 2025. Taipei Game Show is recognized by the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI) and has been praised as a key entry point for international developers seeking to access the Sinophone gaming markets in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China.
Taipei Game Show features two main exhibition areas: the B2C Zone (Business to Consumer), open to the public with playable demos, esports tournaments, cosplay competitions, and stage events; and the B2B Zone (Business to Business), which serves as a trade platform for publishers, developers, and distributors seeking partnerships. An Indie House section was added in 2013 to showcase independent games, fostering networking between indie studios and global investors. As of 2025, the Indie House section is recognized as Asia's biggest indie game exhibition.
Major industry players such as Bandai Namco Entertainment, Sega, Capcom, PlayStation, Xbox, and MiHoYo have participated in past editions, alongside prominent Taiwanese companies including Softstar Entertainment and XFLAG Taiwan. International pavilions—representing regions such as Japan, South Korea, Europe, and North America—are a recurring highlight, illustrating the show’s global reach.
The inaugural Taipei Game Show was held in 2003 with approximately 50,000 visitors. Attendance and international recognition have grown steadily over the years.
