It has been a tricky year for Nacon who earlier this year filed for insolvency. Shortly after this filing they also delayed their Nacon Connect that had been scheduled for March. However, it seems they are planning a bit of a return. Nacon took to social media to announce that Nacon Connect is back on May 7, 2026.
It’s definitely interesting timing to announce their upcoming showcase right on the heels of Spiders Studio closing. Users on Twitter/X have already questioned the timing of the announcement. Of course others are seemingly glad to see Nacon continue on with their publishing arm. It will be interesting to see if anything is mentioned in regards to Spiders Studios being closed with the DLC for Greedfall still on the radar.
Of course, this does not mean that Nacon’s most difficult days are behind them. The company has not yet outright said they are in a better place but perhaps drumming up interests for upcoming titles can help them get on more even footing. Nacon considers Nacon Connect their flagship event showing off both “its accessories branch and its video game publishing”. Perhaps there is hope they can still turn it all around with few casualties such as Spiders.
For those looking to watch, they can expect to see Nacon previewing innovations for a range of accessories as well as diving into game play from upcoming releases. Viewers can expect to see gameplay from upcoming Edge of Memories, Endurance Motorsport Series, and the recently announced Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish.
Nacon Connect 2026 will be available to watch on YouTube and Twitch May 8th at 8PM CEST, 11 AM PST, 2PM EST. Let us know if you’ll be tuning into the showcase next week in the comments down below.
