VAP Group has officially unveiled the lineup of power-packed global speakers for The Global Games Show 2025, scheduled to take place on December 10–11, 2025, in association with Times of Games at Space42 Arena in Abu Dhabi. Following the success of last year’s debut event, this year’s event gets even more exciting. It combines high-impact content from game developers, creators, and visionaries across the gaming world. Supported by the Abu Dhabi Convention & Exhibition Bureau, this event strengthens the mission to bring world-class innovation and thought leadership to the heart of the UAE.
Why Abu Dhabi & Why Space42 Arena?
Abu Dhabi is quickly becoming the Middle East’s gaming and eSports capital. It is backed by a $1.5 billion market and major government-led initiatives, such as AD Gaming and twofour54. With world-class venues, top-tier infrastructure, and a tax-free, business-friendly setup, the city has everything that global studios, streamers, and developers need. The Space42 Arena is a newly established hub for immersive events and new-age technology. The Arena provides a unique and inspiring backdrop for this global event to unfold in December.
Bringing together gamers, developers, and thought leaders, the show includes AI-generated game design, the future of esports in the UAE, Unreal Engine advances, e‑sports, and the next frontier in gaming.
This year’s edition will present a powerhouse speaker lineup, including:
