Pandemic Legacy: Season 0 hasn't had an exact release date yet, but now we probably know why. How Asmodee has announced, the third part of the Legacy trilogy will be released digitally. This means that fans can't buy the board game at the trade fair, but at least they can buy it as part of the trade fair.
In the Corona year, many things follow their own rules. Even the exclusive shopping for board games is completely different than usual due to the trade fair event being canceled or moved to the Internet. Instead of on site in Essen, fans of Asmodee parlor games can at least go on a shopping spree during the trade fair if the general conditions have changed: The publisher has the motto "Back in the game in your city" was proclaimed. What does that mean? Stationary game retailers receive exclusive Asmodee news, which then during the Game digital sold. And by the way, Pandemic Legacy: Season 0 will get a release date as a result, because the end of the trilogy will also be available then.
17 new titles are on the market - maybe even more
Currently the stores that have... Asmodee work together, called upon to register for the campaign. The publisher would like to show the new products to as many people as possible, even without visiting the trade fair in Essen. Participating retailers will then receive exclusive game titles, including Z-Man's Pandemic Legacy: Season 0, but also the highly praised Forgotten Waters from Plaid Hat Games or the new Hans-im-Glück hit Paleo in stores almost hot off the press.

And some trade fair flair is provided by promoters who are on site in the shops as "explanators" to teach players the rules and present the games. Fans also don't have to do without goodies, i.e. promotional items that will be available especially for Spiel Digital.
“At Asmodee we are all sad that the trade fair will take place completely digitally this year. We are very excited and look forward to the new ideas and possibilities on the internet. But we still don’t want to completely miss out on this feeling of browsing and discovering and meeting up,” says Yvette Vaessen, Commercial Director of Asmodee Germany. The concept was therefore considered taking infection protection into account. The stores are already optimally prepared for Corona.
In order to be able to find the participating shops, Asmodee will distribute relevant information on the publisher's website and on social media. And: In addition to unboxing videos, presentations of the exclusive promos or presentations of the games, there will be other content that will get the players in the mood for the fair feeling and make them want the fantastic autumn novelties, according to the publisher.
