As every year, we asked numerous hardware manufacturers and game publishers for prizes for our advent calendar, where great prizes with a total value of over 15,000 dollars can be won every day from December 1st to 24th, 2022!
Of course, we won’t reveal the exact prices in advance. But there is still a little foretaste, because the next day’s prize is already displayed on the calendar overview.
To win one of the 24 prizes, all you have to do is fill out the entry form at the bottom of the daily calendar door!
A little hint: As a user logged in to GameStar.de or GamePro.de, it is not necessary to re-enter your data each time; our system enters it automatically, provided that it has been stored in the user control center on our site.
We will notify the winners promptly by e-mail in order to coordinate the dispatch of the prizes. Here you can find the exact terms of use for our competitions.
Note on competition shipping: All data is only collected for the competition and then deleted again. A transfer to third parties only takes place within the scope of shipping the prize, either to the respective competition partner or, for physical delivery, to the shipping partner of the prize.

Answer questions
Why do I get the message “You have already participated”?
Measured by the number of participants, this error appears only to a small extent. According to our research, this has to do with the necessary spam protection against unwanted mass participation.
It can help to delete the cookies in the browser, change the browser or use a different internet connection (e.g. cell phone network instead of DSL/cable or vice versa) as a test. This error message usually appears when several participating users use the same IP address (uni, flat share, family, etc.).
Where and when will the winners be announced?
We collect the winners of each week and announce them here in this article (in a table below) approximately weekly.
The exception to this is the winners of the last week of Advent. Due to the Christmas holidays, these will probably not be drawn and announced until the first week of the New Year.
This is followed by a personal prize notification to the e-mail address provided when participating with details or sometimes questions about shipping (some prizes are sent by courier due to their size).
What happens with my data?
The data provided will be electronically processed and used exclusively for the purposes of this competition in compliance with the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Further details can be found in our data protection declaration.
What should be considered when participating from Switzerland?
Although the prizes are clearly raffle prizes, in our experience Swiss customs do not recognize any exceptions in this regard and levy significant additional payments (with fees sometimes up to approx. 10 percent of the value of the goods/RRP) for imports into Switzerland. With the often very high values of the individual prizes, we unfortunately cannot cover this ourselves.
In order to still let our valued users from Switzerland participate, we have decided on the following procedure: If we draw a winner from Switzerland, we first ask them whether they are willing to accept the prize, even if they may have to pay customs duties have to pay back. If this is not the case, we will again draw a winner for the respective day.
Can I post my entry via email, Facebook, PM, etc.?
Unfortunately, no. For reasons of equal opportunities and feasibility, participation is only possible via the online form of the advent calendar.
