GamesRadar+ was first founded in 1999, and since then has been dedicated to delivering video game-related news, reviews, previews, features, and more. Since late 2014, the website has been the online home of Total Film, SFX, Edge, and PLAY magazines, with comics site Newsarama joining the fold in 2020. Our aim as the global GamesRadar Staff team is to take you closer to the games, movies, TV shows, and comics that you love. We want to upgrade your downtime, and help you make the most of your time, money, and skills. We always aim to entertain, inform, and inspire through our mix of content - which includes news, reviews, features, tips, buying guides, and videos.

What with the heat and humidity, Japan isn’t the most desirable destination this time of year. And that goes doubly so for attendees of the Tokyo Game Show, all 200,000-plus of them, crammed like ants into the Makuhari Messe convention center. Trust us, you don’t want that.

However, you can still get a sense of what’s on display at TGS right here, as we’ve collected our best photos from this year show. Enjoy!

Are image galleries your thing? Maybe have a look at our cosplay galleries from the Penny Arcade Expo and Comic-Con 2012.
