With many video game conferences around the globe either canceled or postponed due to the issues pertaining to the COVID-19 virus, many developers are unable to attend events to learn key findings and watch presentations from attending speakers in the past few months. Cocos understands the concern that developers have and want to help by bringing some of the best companies in the casual game space together and creating a free, online video conference.
Today, we are announcing the Cocos Game Developers Connect conference will be held on March 18. Cocos has offered talks with partners before as offline salons all across China, but this is our first-ever online conference and continues our initiative to have more live video discussions and tutorials on both of our YouTube and Bilibili platforms.
