The pavilion is titled 'Korea Game Roadshow.' KOCCA will facilitate on-site demonstrations and user testing at the participating companies' booths, and arrange one-on-one business meetings with international publishers, investors, and distributors.
The lineup features a mix of PC/console-oriented titles, mobile games, and kiosk-based interactive content. The PC/console lineup includes AButton's FPS roguelite 'Guns and Dragons,' Hypercent's 4-player co-op horror 'Backroom Cleaners,' Geniesoft's roguelike deckbuilder 'Late Night Study,' NBox Games' visual novel 'The Magical Girl Next Door,' Hardcoders' co-op platformer 'Semo,' Mayfly's 2D shooter 'Project Revenant,' and EmotionWave's rhythm game 'Mu Drum.'
Mobile titles include Nanali's 'Forest Island,' NW's 'Copy It,' and MyTurn's 'Larva Survival: Evolution.' Two Hands Interactive will showcase its LiDAR-based indoor exercise solution 'Didim,' while DevUnlimited will present its AI K-pop dance coaching kiosk 'ChumChum.' Ludens has submitted 'Pandor,' a browser-based 3D creation engine, in the web/online category.
The Korea Pavilion at Gamescom 2025 featured 16 companies. At that time, the agency operated both a B2B pavilion in Hall 3 and a B2C pavilion in Hall 10, allowing for demonstrations aimed at general visitors. This year, the number of participating companies has decreased to 13, and the released materials indicate only one B2B booth location. KOCCA previously reported that it supported 13 companies at Gamescom 2024, resulting in approximately 400 business meetings and $24M (approx. KRW 35 billion) in consultation value. Participating companies are aiming to secure publishing contracts and local distribution channels with European partners.
Gamescom 2026 will kick off on August 24 with the developer conference 'Gamescom Dev.' Following the 'Opening Night Live' pre-show on August 25, the main exhibition will be held at the Koelnmesse from August 26 to 30.
