It was that time of the year again when gamers and cosplayers from across the UAE came together in Abu Dhabi to have a look at some of the latest game releases, buy awesome new equipment, show off their cosplay outfits and stock up on merchandise and figurines.

The 2017 Middle East Gaming Convention was held at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre from Thursday, November 23rd till Saturday, November 25th and with famous voice over actors, Dota 2 and other gaming tournaments, a cosplay competition and famous YouTube stars, the event didn’t disappoint!
