Gamescom organisers have shared more details on this year’s digital-only event, which gets underway on 27th August with the return of Geoff Keighley’s Opening Night livestream.
Gamescom’s digital-only event replaces this year’s physical show, which was cancelled in April in response to the coronavirus outbreak, and will be a slightly shorter affair than normal, running from Thursday, 27th August, to Sunday, 30th August.
An expanded version of the existing Gamescom Now digital content hub will serve as the focal point for the event, playing host to “world premieres, news, games and events”, as well as programming specifically aimed at developers and other trade visitors. Additionally, there will be online areas dedicated to content creator, esports, cosplay, indies, and merchandise.
