Gen Con 2015 is just around the corner. It’s actually coming a few weeks early this year and we’ll be able to celebrate the “Best 4 Days in Gaming” at the end of July. For those of you that are regular attenders, you know that Gen Con is only rivaled by the annual Essen Speil for new board game releases.
To help you on your convention planning, we’ve been contacting the various publishers attending the convention to see what their new game releases are. This list will be constantly updated as the convention draws closer and more information is sent to us from publishers.
So be sure to check back often to keep up on what’s debuting at the con. You can also follow us on twitter and will announce there when we’ve updated this page with new information.
If you are a publisher and want to add your games to the list, let me know the contact page and I’ll get you added.
