EGE 2017: Gamers, cosplayers show unite in numbers

Day two was a definite stronger day than yesterday and the numbers don’t lie. And it was expected…

The Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) was jam-packed with cosplayers, gamers, geek enthusiasts and the general public as more people were still flocking to the CTICC even during lunch time.

The next round of qualifiers for the Dota 2 Masters Championship from VS Gaming was underway and more King of the Hill tournaments was added to the billing including Mario Kart, FIFA 17 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare alongside its featured tournament for Injustice 2.

Cosplaying was back to its stronger ways as dozens took to the stage to show off their best impersonations and costumes of their favourite character, ranging from anime and manga to film and television and everything in between.
