ECTS organiser CMP Europe have confirmed that several more large names have confirmed they will be attending this years event.
The show, which is Europes most important computer games trade event, is taking place at Earls Court in London at the end of August, and will now include Electronic Arts, Acclaim, Infogrames, Midway, Rage and Codemasters, with the companies exhibiting in both the trade and public halls.
CMP say that the event has been boosted by the inclusion of a public hall, which is being sponsored by Sony PlayStation, and will run as the PlayStation Experience.
Tickets for the PlayStation section of the show cost £8 per session (plus a booking fee), and can be booked calling 0870 739 8700 or by visiting www.playstation.com, with sessions lasting five hours from 9am to 2pm and 3pm to 8pm on all three days of the show.
ECTS is expected to see well over 20,000 visitors, with trade registrations already up on last year, with figures expected to rise further in the final weeks before the show. GamesPaper will be reporting live from the event from the first day on August 29th.
