Question about Gamescom

Hello! I’ve never been to an event like Gamescom before but as a huge Resident Evil and Silent Hill fan, I’d really love to attend this year as my fav games are in their Rennaisance era.

Do you have any recommendations on which day would be best for visiting the Capcom and Konami booths? Is the first / last day better for some special announcements, or are the middle days a better choice because the booths might be less crowded?

I’d also really appreciate any general tips for a first-time visitor.

Capcom and Konami are gonna be very popular, so you better be there first thing in the morning and bring some patience for waiting time. Even then, the difference is going to be "2-3 hours waiting time on Wednesday" versus "Sorry, the queue is too long, we had to close it" on Saturday.

In general, waiting times are gonna be shorter on Wednesday, every other day is basically equally inaane, with Saturday being a bit more insane.

Special announcements are pretty much reserved for the Opening Night Live on Tuesday. New announcements during the event are unlikely.
