Molyneux, Livingstone and Cecil are Best of British at PG Connects London 2015

Pocket Gamer Connects London is returning to London in January 2015 to examine the mobile gaming industry from head-to-toe in our usual ebullient style.

As part of our efforts, we’ll be hosting a Best of British track to celebrate all things brilliant in mobile gaming that has come out of Blighty.

So it’s a massive privilege to announce that we really will be having the very best with us as Peter Molyneux of 22 Cans, Ian Livingstone of Square Enix and Charles Cecil of Revolution Studios will all be hitting our Vinopolis venue next January.

The Best of British

Packing in the best part of decades of gaming experience, they’re merely the tip of our Best of British iceberg that’ll be crashing into the country’s capital on the 13-14 January.

Along with those marvellous names, we’re also delighted to be able to call upon the following people to help demonstrate how exactly Britannia’s finest are riding the mobile gaming waves:
