Nordic Game

Nordic Game is a video game developer conference and trade show held annually in Malmö, Sweden. The conference hosts lectures from the computer gaming industry and serves as a company-dating venue where developers and marketers meet. In 2013, 1,500 developers, businesspeople, and enthusiasts were expected to participate. The keynote speech that year was given by video game designer Tim Schafer.[2]

In 2016, the Japanese video game designer, screenwriter, director, and producer Hideo Kojima did a Q&A at the conference, and attendance reached 2,500.[1]

The Nordic Game 2017 edition was also held in Malmö, Sweden, while the 2020 edition, on 27–29 May, was held fully online because of the COVID-19 pandemic from a studio built for the occasion at the Nordic Game offices in Malmö. It gathered 1,350 participants, making it arguably the largest such event in the world at that point in 2020.[3] A second 2020 edition, originally planned to be a regular, full physical event, is to be held on 25–27 November, but eventually only with limited physical attendance.
