Paris Games Week has been cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic

Paris Games Week isn’t the most well-known videogame event in North America, but it’s a big one: It attracted 317,000 visitors over five days in 2019. That’s not going to happen this year, however, as organizers announced today that, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 event scheduled for October 23-27 has been cancelled.

“It is with great emotion that we have made the difficult decision to cancel Paris Games Week, initially scheduled from 23rd to 27th October and which would have marked our 10th anniversary,” the Syndicat des Editeurs de Logiciels de Loisirs wrote.
