Gyeonggi Game Meister High School made an appearance at PlayX4 2026 to showcase a collection of titles crafted by their very own students.

As the only vocational school in the country dedicated entirely to the gaming industry, Gyeonggi Game Meister High School isn't messing around. They run a tight ship, focusing on practical, industry-ready training that covers the full spectrum of development, from design and programming to graphics. The students get to live the actual game development cycle through project-based learning and industry-academic collaborations.

At PlayX4 2026, the students took charge of their own booth, handling everything from pitching their games to explaining the core mechanics. It wasn't just a showcase, though; they were busy analysing visitor gameplay and reactions, turning that feedback into actionable improvements for their projects. To keep things lively, they hosted gacha events, handing out handmade desk mats and keycap keyrings to keep the crowd engaged. It seems their efforts caught some eyes too, as notable industry figures and several CEOs of gaming companies swung by to offer their support.

Gyeonggi Game Meister High School principal Jung Dae-sik noted, "We plan to further expand our support through various exhibitions, competitions, and industry-academic partnerships, ensuring our students have every opportunity to present their work and gain invaluable hands-on experience."
