Germany has been part of the Europe region of the official TPCI circuit for many years.

Germany’s greatest VGC success happened when Michael Kelsch reached the finals of the 2023 World Championships.
The most recent tournament held in Germany was the 2024 Stuttgart Regional, played with the Regulation Set E in December 2023. The finals saw Italian Lorenzo Silvestrini defeat 2-time Regional Champion Nils Dunlop to win his first Regional title!
The last time there was an event in North Rhine-Westphalia was the 2023 Bochum Regional, played with the Regulation Set B in February 2023. The finals saw 2-time National Champion Markus Stadter defeat Spaniard Álex Soto to win his third Regional title!
American James Evans, the 2018 Senior Division World Champion, defeated Brazilian Gabriel Agati in the NAIC finals.
