Amazon pulls out of GDC, show not canceled yet

Amazon announced today that it is also pulling out of the Game Developers Conference 2020, which will take place in San Francisco from March 16 to March 20. The major media company will instead hold an online event in the future to show off what it was going to bring to the show.

Many major sponsors and exhibitors have canceled plans to attend GDC as fears of the coronavirus spreading in the U.S. mount. Sony, Microsoft, Unity, Epic Games, Facebook, and Electronic Arts are all out. Google and Nvidia are the only main sponsors that still plan to attend (or at least haven’t announced that they’re pulling out yet).
