Game Showcases
What's a game convention without showing off some of our newest games? In this year's TpGS, we'll be demoing some of our upcoming releases, such as World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition, World of Tanks: Blitz, and of course, World of Tanks itself.
We've set aside ample space in our booth for everyone to have a go at these games. Learn how smooth the movement of your tank feels with controller in hand on the Xbox 360, and the sleekness of Blitz as it runs flawlessly on tablets. Or why not take a little break and just play the original game instead? It's all ready and available for you!
Stage Activities and Contests
Think you've got what it takes to be the ace at TpGS? Come on down and prove yourself! The Gigabyte Challenge and the Razer Royal Rumble is open to all attendees and features a fast-paced knockout tournament system. Teams for both mini-tournaments will be drafted randomly from all willing participants - the first team to win two consecutive games in their respective tournament will be declared the winner.
- Only single registrations are allowed. Registration will be opened 2 hours before the event.
- Each player will be drawn randomly into a team. Team participating sequence will also be random.
- Winner stays while the loser will be kicked out of the running. The team to win 2 consecutive matches will be declared the winner.
So what do you get from winning? Great prizes, of course! While we're not ready to reveal what exactly our winners will receive, you'll be glad to know that we are preparing a spread of gaming gear and peripherals, sponsored generously by our partners!
Girls und Panzer Voice Actress Appearances
You've made your best guesses, and now we'll be revealing their identities!
Voice actresses Mai Fuchigami and Ikumi Nakagami will be attending TpGS this year! These talented ladies are better known for their roles as the adorable tank commander Miho Nishizumi and tank-obsessed loader Yukari Akiyama respectively, and they'll be walking amongst you at the event grounds.
What's more, they'll also be holding a brief meet-and-greet session on the 25th of January! We'll be making it an exclusive event for selected attendees of the show only however, so be sure to join us at the event grounds to find out how to get in!
Taipei Game Show 'Hunt Us Down' Event
Can't get yourself to Taipei? That's okay - there's still fun to be had!
We'll be holding one of our exciting Hunt Us Down Events at TpGS, and you can participate in the comfort of your own home. Golden tanks will be deployed in random battles, so keep a sharp lookout - if you manage to destroy one, you win 500as a prize!
But don't be surprised if these Golden tanks start shooting back aggressively! These are manned personally by our TpGS attendees, and for good reason; if they secure at least 4 kills in a match, they will win 800for themselves.
For those of you who are coming to see us, you'll surely get a taste of driving a gold-plated tank. And if you're opting to stay home instead: Good hunting!
Quest Card mini-game
Who knew that you'd get rewards by playing games in real-life? But it's true - collect your personal Quest Card, and accomplish your missions!
Each Quest Card will display a checklist filled with three tasks that you will have to accomplish. Once you've completed the tasks within, you'll be able to redeem some cool World of Tanks premiums such as t-shirts, mugs and more. It's that easy!
So how does the Quest Card work? Here's what you do:
- Register for a World of Tanks game account at the registration center to receive your Quest Card.
- Complete the missions at three stations (Xbox, Blitz and World of Tanks) and get an official stamp from the staff at each station.
- Exchange your Quest Card for goodies at the redemption counter.
