The word ‘arcade’ kicks in a nostalgia doesn’t it? Well, it was the same for a group of people at Penny Arcade in 2004. They decided and came together to put up a show exclusively for gaming. We see the world is packed up comic con and anime exclusive shows. But not just that, there are many such meets and shows that span all around the world and quench the nerdiness among their fans. But what about games?

Let the games begin

A dearth of such a show led to the making of PAX West (formerly PAX Prime). It was an event focused only on the gaming community. What started out as a 45,000-people meet in Seattle, is now drawing tens of thousands of attendees. (In fact, so much so that in 2010 the show had to be extended to Boston because it was flooded with people). So now these events that take place in Seattle and Boston are the two largest one in North America.

Now the show is back in town for 2019. Penny Arcade’s PAX West 2019 is going to be bigger, better and grander. (Rush in to buy the tickets here; for some days they are already sold out!) Recent years have roped in more AAA games to the show. This, in turn, has enhanced the presence of PAX West.

While it is almost impossible to cover all the details of the event, here are five of the games that would be featuring in the show:

Games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Marvel’s Avengers will receive special presentations at PAX West 2019

Marvel’s The Avengers

Avengers | Trending Today | DKODING

After the Avengers‘ movies created a frenzy among Marvel fans, now they are to be treated with a game! The game set in the Marvel universe has been at the center of many questions after it was showcased at E3 2019.

In the game, the gamer will have to build a team in a post superhero world. It already sounds interesting, doesn’t it? So, after you have chosen your team of Avengers, you take on missions that lead up some large scale fights. These fights, in turn, offer loot and gateways to power.
