EB Games Expo 2015, commonly known as simply EB Expo 2015, was an international video game and accessory trade show, open to the general public, held at the Sydney Showground in October 2015. The Expo was the fifth running of the EB Games Expo, held annually by EB Games Australia, and featured upcoming and recently released games from video game industry developers and publishers, as well as new technologies in video game accessories.
Nintendo, along with major publishers Ubisoft and Electronic Arts, in addition to many other minor publishers and indie developers showcased their upcoming titles. Sony were also present with their PlayStation stand, where the PlayStation 4 made its third appearance at the EB Games Expo, alongside Microsoft's Xbox One at the Xbox stand. In addition, the convention featured hour-long presentations, held in the Buring Pavilion, from Xbox, Bandai Namco, Ubisoft, PlayStation and Electronic Arts throughout the three-day length of the expo. Comedians The Umbilical Brothers and John Robertson also performed on stage at the convention.
The 2015 EB Games Expo was held at the Sydney Showground, located in Sydney Olympic Park. The expo occupied The Dome, its neighboring pavilions and the Southee Complex to the north of The Dome. The event was open on two "daylight" and "twilight" sessions, each 6 and 4 hours in length respectively, on 2 and 3 October, with one 6 hour session on 4 October, following the same format as the previous two years.
