Tokyo Game Show 2020, the biggest gaming event in Japan, is starting their first-ever online-only event on September 24. For you Japanese games lovers, of course, this isn’t a series of live streams you would want to miss out on. If you don’t know where and what to watch, below we have compiled a list of developers and publishers’ streams and lineups as well (with many thanks to Gematsu for making double-checking schedules much easier). As a reminder, unless noted, every TGS 2020 streams will be broadcasted only in Japanese. With that out of the way, let’s see what Japan’s AAA developers and publishers have to offer this week.

(*note: Japan Time schedules have been converted into PDT, updated with TGS’ Online Official Twitch stream)

Tokyo Game Show 2020 ONLINE Official Program

The official TGS 2020 ONLINE doesn’t have its own English live stream on YouTube. But they do stream it on Twitch. Just head over to twitch.tv/tokyogameshow6.

Microsoft’s Tokyo Game Show 2020 Schedule

TGS 2020 will be kicked off by a new Xbox Games Showcase. The Xbox team has confirmed that they won’t bring any new next-gen scoops and the show will be broadcasted in Japanese only. Their lineup seems a bit short since they didn’t tell anything about what the “recently announced” titles are. But it is a 50-minute show, so there could be something interesting in it.

September 24

  • 4:00 AM PDT:
  • Microsoft Flight Simulator.
  • Minecraft.
  • Recently announced games.

Square Enix

  • Microsoft Flight Simulator.
  • Minecraft.
  • Recently announced games.

If you’ve been waiting for more on Dragon Quest and the NieR Replicant remaster, this is it. On September 24, Square Enix will be streaming a NieR series discussion featuring the staff of the remaster, Automata, and Re[in]carnation mobile game, including, of course, the brain behind the series and Drakengard Yoko Taro. Thankfully the prerecorded stream will be presented with English subtitle as well. Meanwhile, another NieR segment on the third day is said to be a “coherent discussion”. I don’t think it will be broadcasted in English and I think you won’t miss anything anyway unless you do want to know more how Taro’s brain works. Here’s their lineup:

In terms of new titles, Capcom’s stream doesn’t pack much punch. Since Resident Evil 8, DMC V: Special Edition, and the new Monster Hunter titles have been shown on previous events. Still, more gameplay demos for Resident Evil is bound to be good. And I’m pretty sure this is the only publisher on TGS that will stream their whole show in English. You can check out the English-translated streams over on CapcomUSA’s Twitch account. Their lineups are:

  • 5:00 AM PDT: Opening.

  • 5:05 AM PDT: Street Fighter V: Champion Edition Presentation (PS4, PC).

  • 5: 40 AM PDT: Capcom Information 1.

  • 5:50 AM PDT: Monster Hunter Rise and Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Presentation (Switch).

Bandai Namco Tokyo Game Show 2020 Lineup

Not much to say about Bandai Namco’s live stream. Similar to Capcom’s, they won’t bring any big surprises since they already announced their games before. But if you’re eagerly waiting for Scarlet Nexus or new updates for Gundam Extreme VS., this could be it. Personally, reading their lineup, I’m not holding my breath for any THE [email protected]: Starlit Season news this year. It’s probably gonna be a late Q2 2021 release at the earliest.
