Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association have revealed the main visual for Tokyo Game Show 2023, which takes place from September 21 to 24 at the Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan. Illustrator Kukka created the Tokyo Game Show 2023 main visual for the fourth year in a row. The theme of Tokyo Game Show 2023 is “Games in Motion, The World in Revolution.”
“We play games sometimes as a way to relax and sometimes to escape from reality,” Kukka said in a Tokyo Game Show 2023 press release. “Based on this year’s theme, I drew game characters reaching their arms to our physical world, with a composition as if you were drawn into the world of games. I tried to create the work to feel a lot of vibe and actions. More than anything, I wanted to feel a fun atmosphere there, so I used vivid colors and played with iconic game items such as explosions and other special effects!”
For the first time in four years, Tokyo Game Show will take up the entirety of Makuhari Messe’s halls. This year’s iteration will feature online programs and a Tokyo Game Show VR venue. Players around the world may tune into Tokyo Game Show and enjoy the latest gaming news and announcements.
