2020 Game Developers Conference is canceled due to coronavirus

After a week where one big name participant after another announced it would not send people to the show over concerns about the spread of coronavirus, GDC 2020 organizers have announced the event is off.

This announcement comes just hours after officials announced a second case of the virus in California with an unknown origin.
