Tokyo Game Show
This could be the most accessible TGS in years, with not only the masses allowed in for the first time since 2020, but a mysterious VR component that we hope means those of us with a headset will be able to experience some of the unique flavour of gaming’s most easterly global get-together. Or maybe it’s just something that Square Enix and Kojima Productions has signed up to - which is reason enough in itself to dust off the ol’ cybergoggles
Beyond those two, TGS2022 promises to be a fitting finale to the summer’s game showcases, with Konami, Capcom, Koei Tecmo, SEGA, Atlus and Bandai Namco all with secrets to reveal and updates to provide.

22nd-25th Dual Universe EGX London
Coming once more to London’s ExCel, the Eurogamer Expo has an impressive list of playable games this year, with over 100 of the blighters to tinker with, such as the hotly anticipated (if your name is Vince Pavey) Sonic Frontiers. Expect the usual queues and, for when your legs give out, some essential panel discussions to collapse into. One being a celebration of 1997’s N64 GoldenEye game, which is another Vince favourite. Why, yes, Vince will be going to EGX this year! How could you tell?

Conceived more than a decade ago, Dual Universe launches after eight years in crowd-funded, early access development. With Elite and Star Citizen taking all
the space game headlines over recent years, Novaquark’s game has patiently flown under the radar, but that looks set to change now that it has appeared on Steam for the first time. The scope is Minecraft in space, in that you can build everything from scratch, with the same scale and ambition as EVE Online in terms of in-game politics and stellar economics. In a further throwback to when it was originally conceived, it also requires a subscription, which might not endear it to too many players these days. Still, with EVE and Elite getting on and Star Citizen not getting off, maybe a new universe is just what genre fans need.
