The Middle East Games convention is back in Abu Dhabi this weekend, and it’s bigger than ever. From October 25-27, gamers will be able to indulge in their passion at ADNEC. This has been a great year for games so far, with spectacular titles like <em>God of War</em>, <em>Spider-man</em>, and the much awaited <em>Red Dead Redemption 2 </em>coming out soon. Those who head down to the convention will get the chance to meet some of the medium’s most famous and beloved figures, with names like: Syndicate and Miniminter (of YouTube fame), as well as Overwatch’s voice actress Lucie Pohl. These three will be in attendance on all three days of the event. Live 'let's play' sessions are set to take centre stage at the event, with games like <em>Soulcaliber VI </em>and <em>Jump Force </em>from Bandai Namco. Seasoned players might also be interested in the workshops on offer at the convention, where you could learn "how to be a vlogger and build your brand around gaming". Music fans will be spoiled for choice with the amount of on-stage performances, with everything from Beatboxing to a Samurai band performance. Cinema and TV lovers are not forgotten, as Japanese classics <em>Naruto </em>and <em>Gintama </em>are being screened. <a href="https://www.me-gamescon.com/en/show-info/Whats-On/meet-the-players.html">Check the website here for timings for the entertainment stage.</a> Cosplayers will be given the chance to don their capes and cowls and embody their favourite characters.
