The world is slowly healing. A lot of countries all over the world are finally getting better vaccination rates, paving the way for live events to return. In fact, a few long-standing events have already decided to take it back to the IRL stage. After losing two years to the pandemic, Computex 2022 is finally returning to an in-person event next year.

Computex 2022 will start from May 24 through 27 next year. The event will once again find its home in the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center Halls 1 and 2. As always, the convention will feature the latest devices and technologies coming throughout 2022 and beyond.

Exhibitor application have already started this October. Soon, tech companies will likely announce their participation in the event. With some luck and loads of planning, the industry should get more confirmation news, rather than reports of brands pulling out.

During the start of the pandemic, tech events have grinded to a complete halt. A lot of events have cancelled their in-person events, resorting to a completely online method of announcing news. This year, some have started dipping their toes back into the live events industry, albeit in either limited or hybrid events.

Meanwhile, the global warm-up tour for Computex 2022 will start in November, taking the event to countries all over the world.

PlayStation Asia has tapped different cosplayers to dress-up as Eve in anticipation of sci-fi action adventure title Stellar Blade. Larissa Rochefort, Le Josette, and Rurusama will grace a one-of-a-kind meet and greet event on April 27. That’s the same weekend of the game’s launch.

There will be three simultaneous meet and greets across Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. Since slots are limited, fans are encouraged to register via PlayStation Asia’s link here.

The venue and time details are as follows:

  • Indonesia: GSSHOP, Gandaria City Lt. 2, Jakarta, 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM

It’s fitting that PlayStation Asia thought of this idea for a launch event. We already know for a fact that players can customize Eve with various outfits. Seeing the cosplayers in the flesh is like seeing different versions of Eve. And that’s just a glimpse of the entire sci-fi world Shift Up’s platformer is about to offer.
