The Weekly Raid: The Road To G-Star 2018

G-Star, Korea’s marquee gaming trade show kicks off on November 15 in the port city of Buson. While most of the announcements made at G-Star only immediately effect the Korean market, the out sized influence Korea exerts in global PC & mobile gaming market makes the trade show well worth following for gamers across the world. Odds are the games announced this week will eventually find their way to the West, even if does sometimes take several years.

Here's a quick run down of some of the biggest names at G-Star. Often big studios will hold seperate media events prior to G-Star's start date, for the sake of brevity we've included games announced at such events here as well.
