Influencer and Creator

At the TOKYO GAME SHOW 2024 (TGS2024), influencers who distribute gameplay on video posting sites and SNS for the purpose of improving information dissemination can enter the venue from Business Day. (* Entry conditions apply).

There are two categories of influencers: "Invited Influencers" and "General Influencers".
Please check the details below and submit your entry via the dedicated form (August 2 - September 24), and your visit will be approved (i.e., your registration is complete) after screening.

The venue will also feature the "Creator Lounge," a dedicated area for influencers to use as a base when visiting TGS2024, where they can interact with other influencers and edit their videos.

Also new this year, we plan to introduce a "Press / Influencer Matching System" that will allow influencers to find out in advance if there will be priority trial play for influencers at exhibitors' booths and to communicate directly with exhibitors (some exhibitors may not support this service).

We hope that all influencers and creators will come and experience the forefront of gaming, and share with as many people as possible the information, experiences, and feelings you have gained at the venue.
