The annual IEEE Conference on Games (IEEE CoG) aims to be a leading venue for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and novel approaches to bring innovation in and through games. Games are a great domain to study and develop novel ideas in design, artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, psychology, education, sociology, and creativity, as well as their applications in real-world problems. 

We invite contributions related to all game aspects, including, but not limited to:

– Accessibility and inclusivity in games
– Game design (frameworks, game mechanics, etc.)
– Game technology (game engines, graphics, audio, animation, physics, networking, controls, etc.)
– Player-Computer Interfaces
– Generative AI for games
– Serious/applied games (for health, sustainability, etc.)
– Extended reality (virtual reality, mixed reality, and augmented reality)
– Esports and live-streaming
– Games for education, learning and development
– Game editors and authoring tools
– Game User Research (player/opponent modeling, player experience studies, psychology of play and player types, etc.)
– Game-playing AI
– Games as test-beds for algorithms
– Game analytics, game data science, and data visualization
– AI for game development (automated playtesting, adaptation/personalization in games, etc.)

Please note: CoG is not a conference about game theory and does not accept papers about game theory unless they are applied to games people would play, such as video games or board games.
