Mifcom is returning as a partner for the third edition of gamescom lan, equipping the LAN area with high-end PCs for the Premium Upgrade ticket variant. There will also be a Bisalina Speedrun event, and the gamification activation gamescom epix will be coming to gamescom lan as well.
Following their partnership in recent years, Mifcom is once again providing premium upgrades for gamescom lan. A total of 330 high-end PCs will be available in the LAN area. Afterwards, the computers can be purchased refurbished and at a discount. Premium upgrades have already sold out, but standard tickets are still available for gamescom lan 2026, which will take place in Cologne from 20 to 22 March.
"Gamescom lan thrives on the energy, passion and drive of the gaming community to compete at the highest level," says Cédric Schlosser, CEO of MYI. "With Mifcom by our side, we have a partner that lays the groundwork for exactly that. The high-performance PCs provided guarantee uncompromising performance, ensuring that our participants can focus entirely on what matters: the game, the competition, and the shared experience."
"Gamescom lan brings the community together - we deliver the performance," says Dmitry Ginzburg, CEO of Mifcom. "We are supporting the event with our high-end PCs for the third year running. We are delighted to be part of this special LAN experience and to provide players with top-tier hardware."
For the first time, the robot Epi is bringing the gamification model "epix" to the gamescom lan. Anyone with a gamescom account can take part. While attending the event is not necessary, there will be special quests and rewards available over the coming weekend.
Last but not least, the Bisalina Speedruns charity event is returning as an offline event to raise funds for krisenchat, together with creators. A total of eight streamers will be broadcasting live from the lan for viewers at home and guests on site. The programme includes two to three speedrun challenges from Friday to Sunday. Participants on site will have the chance to compete in various competitions and win cash prizes totalling over €2,000.
