"This is one of the reasons why we will have the most game stations we ever had at gamescom. Besides letting people experience our worlds while playing our games, we will extend the experience by providing immersive activations that are in line with the different game worlds we have," the game studio executive stated. "For example, to show our appreciation for the art of cosplay and to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Assassin's Creed we will have a lineup of eight different AC costumes on display created by world renowned cosplayer Rick Boer."
Gamescom 2017 is scheduled to run from Wednesday, Aug. 23, until Saturday, Aug. 26.
