Gamescom 2025: Games/Bavaria in the business area with Bavarian studios and universities – logo on green background.

DIE GAMEREI goes to gamescom: Games/Bavaria brings a sense of community to the business sector

In the B2B area of gamescom 2025, our booth will be the hotspot for anyone interested in games made in Bavaria: Our presence in Hall 4.1 (Booth C057) will be all about GAMEREI – the new center of the Bavarian gaming community – and will bring together different areas of the gaming ecosystem in Bavaria under one roof. Inspiration and networking are our top priorities.

Visitors to our booth have their eyes firmly fixed on the future of the gaming industry “made in Bavaria”: four LEVEL UP alumni and eight universities are presenting their projects.

Games/Bavaria @ Business Area

This year, our booth is all about GAMEREI and, just like our “Bavarian Home of Game Changers,” it provides a roof for the different areas that make up our Bavarian gaming ecosystem—simply a place that invites exchange and networking!

By the way: If you enjoyed our Games/Bavaria gingerbread last year, be sure to stop by again this year: We have something sweet in store for you!

You can find these highlights in our Business Area:

DIE GAMEREI

Logo: "DIE GAMEREI"

The home for Bavaria’s gaming community is coming to Cologne: Here you can find information, discussions, and a little bit of home away from home amid the hustle and bustle of the trade fair.

DIE GAMEREI offers 1,000 square meters of space in eastern Munich for events, communities, and offices for everyone from students to studios.

You can select GAMEREI @ Games/Bavaria as your meeting place in MeetToMatch this year and fly the Bavarian flag at Gamescom!
