Game On, Dreamers! (G.O.D), Singapore’s flagship playfest, has revealed the full expanded lineup for its inaugural three-day festival, set to take place from 11 to 13 December 2026 at Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre. The event brings together competitive esports, cosplay culture, live music experiences and family-friendly activities across three themed zones: Dream World, Dream Battle and Dream Play.
Game On Dreamers Playfest
Dream World is designed to bring blockbuster gaming universes to life through immersive environments and experiential storytelling. Visitors can step into street-fighting game environments, dine in themed monster cafés and explore atmospheric walkthroughs inspired by popular gaming worlds. Dedicated zones also celebrate the history and creativity of video games through curated displays, character showcases and nostalgic arcade experiences, along with themed photo spots and exclusive merchandise.
After dark, Dream World gives way to R.E.M, a two-night rave set within The Grid, a fictional dystopian world inspired by game universes. The Main Stage transforms into an immersive after-dark chapter featuring dynamic laser displays, striking stage design and performances by top international electronic artists including Brennan Heart, Dimension, Fantasm, Hannah Laing, Lilly Palmer, Lost Frequencies and WUJACKERS. Local and regional acts Ezra Hazard, Joshua Dillon, Mr. Yang and Tchuno are also on the bill.
Dream Battle is the competitive core of the festival, hosting the first-ever Red Bull Wings Cup EA Sports FC27, where top Singapore players battle for a spot at the Global Finals in Miami. The arena also features tournaments across Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Kill Streak and Street Fighter, with cash prizes of up to S$10,000, in-game diamonds and an all-expenses-paid trip to Miami on the line.
Cosplay Fight Club brings Hollywood action veteran Richard Cetrone and Japanese cosplay pioneer Nobuyuki Takahashi onto the judging panel. The competition spans an Open category and an invite-only All Star division, with cash prizes of up to S$2,500 and an all-expenses-paid trip to Korea available. Dream Battle will also host the Singapore qualifier for the Gyeonggi International Cosplay Festival Championship, sending the winning team to compete in South Korea.
Dream Play serves as the casual and family-friendly hub of the event. In partnership with Timezone, the zone features rhythm games like Mai Mai and Taiko, racing simulators including Initial D and Asphalt 9 VR, and carnival classics like Skee Ball and Break the Plate. The Loot Vault offers festival collectibles and merchandise, headlined by an exclusive collaboration with local streetwear collective Projectslacksss, covering hoodies, tees, pants, tote bags, socks and caps, alongside official G.O.D gear and R.E.M rave essentials.
