Attendees will have the opportunity to witness reveals of upcoming titles, play the most hotly anticipated unreleased games, participate in tournaments and go to panels headed by the industry’s top influencers and creative minds.
While PAX Unplugged will focus on tabletop gaming, videogames featuring board or card game elements will also be at the expo.
“I played my first game of Dungeons & Dragons at six years old, and never looked back,” said Jerry Holkins, co-founder, Penny Arcade. “PAX Unplugged will give us a chance to let the thriving tabletop area of the PAX shows breathe a bit – and take an opportunity to celebrate the incredible, ongoing renaissance of the form.”

Connecting the world’s leading game publishers with their most avid and influential fans, PAX expanded with a second show in Boston in 2010 and a third in San Antonio in 2015, making it the three largest gaming shows in North America.
