Canada’s biggest pop-culture event is nearly upon us.
Fan Expo Canada returns to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre from August 27-30, celebrating the likes of comics, movies, TV and gaming.
As we do every year, we’ve rounded up some of the biggest programming to check out, especially on the gaming and streaming front. Read on for more.
Big gaming companies unfortunately don’t go to Fan Expo very often anymore, so Canada’s largest independent developer being in attendance is especially notable.
On Saturday at 3 p.m. in Room 707, Behaviour Interactive will host a panel focused on horror games. This includes its long-running popular Dead by Daylight game, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, as well as smaller titles it publishes like 7 Days to Die.
