CyberConnect2 announces convention plans for the Summer

CyberConnect2, the studio behind the development of licensed titles such as the Naruto/Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Series, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star-Battle-R as well as original works such as Fuga: Melodies of Steel announced their 2024 Summer convention plans.

The cons which will be happening mostly in July will see EVP Taichiro Miyazaki and CEO Hiroshi Matsuyama visiting conventions on both coasts of the US as well as Paris France. Miyazaki will probably have the roughest task have to fly to Pittsburgh to give fans at Anthrocon updates on the company’s Fuga: Melodies of Steel franchise and then make his way to Los Angeles to give a talk about finding work abroad and the work culture in Japan at the US’s largest anime convention, Anime Expo.

CyberConnect 2’s presence will be slightly larger at Paris’ celebration of all things Japan, Japan Expo. The company will have a booth on the showfloor and Mr. Matsuyama will be speaking at several panels during the weekend. Attendees of the panels can even go home with gifts! The company will also participate in autograph sessions throughout the weekend, although it is not revealed who will be attending the signings.

For a full listing of the events that the company will be participating in, please view the listing below and if there are details missing please refer to the schedules of the actual convention itself as programming can change with little to no notice.
