One of my fields in one of my entities is a "datetime" variable.

How can I convert this field into a string to render in a browser?

Here is a code snippet:

```
{% for game in games %}
    ...
        <td> {{game.gameTeamIdOne.teamName}} </td>
        <td> {{game.gameTeamIdTwo.teamName}} </td>
        <td> {{game.gameDate}}</td>
    </tr>
{% endfor %}

```

Here is the variable in my entity class:

```
/**
 * @var date $gameDate
 *
 * @ORM\Column(name="GAME_DATE", type="datetime", nullable=true)
 */
private $gameDate;

```

And here is the error message I am getting:
