Mark Cutmore, Head of Commercial Experiences at the Science Museum Group, said: \u201cWe are over the moon to welcome POWER UP back to the museum. It has always been a big hit with our visitors so we\u2019re excited to be giving so much time to enjoy and keep returning to this experience during its longest run ever at the museum. We\u2019re also really proud to be showcasing our city\u2019s amazing contributions to the industry through the new Manchester Made section.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPOWER UP offers a fun space to enjoy past and present gaming technology, experience the latest developments and reminisce about old favourites. The gaming industry is a key component of Manchester\u2019s creative, digital and tech industries and this interactive exhibition will help to inspire game designers and software engineers of the future.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
