StormCon was held at the Anaheim Convention Center near LA.
Thousands of people who had purchased tickets flocked to the massive convention hall. The event venue was a sea of people, a mix of fans, industry officials, and reporters.
Various events were broadcast online through their own website, and those who purchased a virtual ticket for $49 could watch the event without being there in person. Virtual ticket purchasers were given skins that could be used in various games as a gift, so hundreds of thousands of people bought them and watched on their computers or smartphones.
Limited edition goods that could only be purchased at StormCon were sold at the event venue, and there were also active exhibitions and sales of secondary creations such as drawings and videos created by professionals and amateurs, as well as doujinshi and indie games.
There was a cosplay contest where participants and winners were given various prizes, and the e-sports tournament held separate matches for amateur teams as well as professional teams.
It was not just a simple game show, but a festival with the theme of IceStorm games. This was possible because of the content capabilities that IceStorm has accumulated for nearly 20 years.
People from all over the world had gathered at the event venue. Nationality, race, and age did not matter when it came to loving games.
Oh Taekgyu, Jung Gi-hong, Anneke, and Yang Hana watched the event at a leisurely pace.
Team Leader Jung Gi-hong looked around with surprised eyes at the sight, which was different from the game shows he had seen in Korea and Japan.
