All the PAX East 2019 coverage you might have missed over the weekend

PAX East 2019 is officially in the books. Over the weekend, Penny Arcade held its annual video game conference in Boston, MA – where gaming developers and gaming fans are all stuffed under the same roof. As expected, the event was packed and it drew tens of thousands of folks to the Boston Convention Center. Whether your cup of tea is indie games, AAA titles, board games, or basically anything related to gaming, PAX East is where you wanted to be.

Naturally, KnowTechie was on the ground and we had Josiah, Josh, and myself covering everything we could find. It was busy, exhausting, and overall a great time – but hey, we got the job done.

We covered a lot. Whether it was hands-on demos, discovering new indie titles or the general hardware write up – we did it all. If you didn’t have your browser tuned to KnowTechie over the weekend and want to see what you might have missed, we’ll round up everything below. Again, it’s a lot. But if you’re looking for some content to digest while you’re trying to kill some time between a load screen, we got you.
