Our fellow gamers across the pond don't have to worry about the GC Developers Conference in Lepzig going anywhere soon. Leipziger Messe boss Wolfgang Marzin shot down rumors by saying, "The GC – Games Convention is not moving."

And why would they? Project director Peggy Schönbeck told Next-Gen earlier this month that GC '08 will be the biggest show they've ever had with more than 500 exhibitors expected to attend. And the business area is set to expand by 40,000 square meters (a 25% increase over last year).

Rumors began when German publishers association BIU agreed to a deal with Koelnmesse to host GAMESCom, a new Cologne-based games trade show. based on this agreement it was believed that '08 would be the last year that the GC would take place in Germany. So rest easy mein freunde! This years Leipzig GC will be held from August 20 - 24.
