Here's a breakdown of how to watch Tokyo Game Show 2022.

After having an all-digital format in 2020 and 2021, Tokyo Game Show 2022 (TGS) is set to hold an in-person venue open for both business and general visitors.

Though those fortunate enough to visit Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan will surely have the best seats in the house, there will still be plenty of showcases and announcements to digest for those tuning in online — including the virtual "booth area," Tokyo Game Show VR 2022.

Here's a breakdown of how to watch Tokyo Game Show 2022.
