The PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct airs Sunday, September 28 at 9 am Pacific (12 pm Eastern, 5 pm BST, 1 am JST) with never-before-seen trailers, announcements, and updates from our reporter on the ground at Tokyo Game Show.
You can watch the stream live in the player above or on Twitch and Steam, but if years of social media conditioning has led you to prefer scrolling through a reverse-chronological feed of brief written comments, I’ve got you covered. I’ll be sharing all the news from PCGS Tokyo Direct as it happens in the liveblog below.
Without further ado, the latest from Tokyo:
What’s been going on at TGS so far
The PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct starts soon! While we wait, here are some of the headlines that have come out of this year’s Tokyo Game Show already:
- I played China’s ‘anime GTA’ Ananta and I wasn’t surprised to find Spider-Man swinging and Batman punching, but I wasn’t quite ready for the vampire who vomits rainbows
- Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 gets Tokyo Game Show sign of life: ‘Since we called the first instalment Vol. 1, it’s only natural to expect a second one’
- Forza Horizon 6’s Japan map is mondo-huge, Playground’s ‘biggest map yet’ and also its ‘most full’
- New Virtua Fighter presentation takes a lot of time to say not very much aside from a short teaser and a brand-new battle system
The PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct starts in one hour!

Just 60 minutes to go until the first PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct! Along with the usual world premiere trailers you expect from our June and December shows, this stream will include reports from ground at Tokyo Game Show, where PC Gamer’s Wes Fenlon has spent the past week speaking to developers. The show will be a little over an hour long.
