Hasbro PulseCon was an online convention that was held in September 2020 via the YouTube channel for Hasbro Pulse. The convention was hosted by Syfy Wire correspondent, writer, and producer Jackie Jennings, and featured events related to Hasbro and associated brands.
Venue
[edit]Due to the [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}COVID-19 pandemic|{{#if:||COVID-19 pandemic}}]], major conventions had to be closed to protect guests and attendees throughout 2020. However, some conventions instead opted to hold virtual events online. Hasbro followed suit with Hasbro PulseCon, which was announced on August 31, 2020.<ref>https://twitter.com/Hasbro/status/1300434043473977344</ref> A sneak peek was released on Tuesday, September 22, three days before the event, which promoted a revival of HeroQuest. The convention proper started on Friday, September 25, and ran for two days. PulseCon also provided exclusives to Hasbro Pulse members in the United States and Canada.

Notes
[edit]- Hasbro stated that PulseCon was meant for US and Canada fans only, but fans across the world have reported that the stream was not geolocked. Hmmm...
