First Ever Kobold Con Online Convention

Yes, it’s only February, but when you’re in the business of games, February means two things:
1) You can’t get anything printed in China.
2) It’s time to get ready for convention season.

Increasingly, for game companies of a certain age, it also means that it’s time to plan your own convention. And since Kobold Press turns 18 this year (more on that soon), it’s time to go!

Kobold Con 2024

This year marks the first annual (that’s right, we said annual) online convention, Kobold Con. May 10–12, 2024. On the big internet.

We’ll feature select Tales of the Valiant RPG projects, tease what we’ve got coming in the rest of 2024, and maybe talk some of 2025 too. (We’ll see how loose-lipped our publisher, Wolfgang Baur, feels.) You’ll hear what to expect in future crowdfunding campaigns and a dive into new tabletop products available in 2024.

The event premieres with the Kobold Showcase live-streamed event available. The showcase will feature announcements and first looks at the Tales of the Valiant RPG virtual tabletop and digital options available for purchase digitally for the very first time.

Throughout the weekend, Kobold Press will also host the first official Tales of the Valiant online Organized Play event, highlighting VTT partners, including Shard, Alchemy, and Foundry, and revealing the official Valiant 6 characters.

Game master and player signups will be released soon! Join the Kobold Press official Discord channel for more information.

At the end of the Kobold Con weekend, Kobold Press will host a live stream charity actual play, raising funds for the brand-new Kobold Press Gaming Scholarship. This scholarship will be given annually to a student entering collegiate studies of pen and paper game design. Kobold Press will match donations throughout the weekend, ensuring a new game design student is fostered into our industry.

“We are thrilled to announce Kobold Con and bring the Kobold Press community together to celebrate our upcoming projects and release schedule,” said Wolfgang Baur, Kobold Press’s founder and publisher. “We can’t wait for everyone to join us for a weekend full of discounts, partnership reveals, sneak previews, and charity fundraising.”
