By now, many of you already know the event that has been held in Barcelona, ​​for a while related to gaming and video games.

This pavilion is also used for other important events such as the last Mobile World Congress (MWC) and pavilion 2 is the best in terms of the smartphone event, since it brings together all the current big brands and has a privileged place in the enormous enclosure.

The BGW will once again have the presence of the main brands so visitors will once again enjoy the opportunity to try the great novelties of the season during the show, even before its commercial launch. The eSports will be, along with the novelties of the brands, other of the great protagonists of the show.
