GamesCom confirms ’09 dev conference plans

Organisers of next year’s Gamescom have confirmed that the Cologne-based even will boast a games development conference.

The inaugural conference takes place in September 2009, and comes as many of the participating publishers from the Leipzig trade and retail conference look to create a new event in better-located part of Germany.

Leipzig and its accompanying GCDC developer conference is still pencilled in to take place in August 09 – but the conference is without its organiser; former GCDC chief Frank Sliwka, who joined Gamescom last month, is running the rival show’s new developer event.
