Gamescom Opening Night Live showcase will feature ‘over 20 games’

Gamescom is coming up later this month and Geoff Keighley has finally begun sharing details on what we can expect from his Opening Night Live showcase. The show will kick off Gamescom on the 25th of August, and will be the first time the event has been held in person since 2019. 

Keighley hosted a Twitter Spaces last night to tease the upcoming show. During the session, which VGC transcribed, he claimed that “more than 20 games will be on stage”, and that there will be guest appearances from some big names coming to Germany to reveal their games live in-person.

Overall, the show will run for roughly 2 hours, with the runtime filled up by gameplay clips, new trailers and announcements, as well as the usual awkward on-stage developer interviews.

Gamescom will be taking place as a physical event this year for the first time since August 2019. Xbox recently announced its booth plans for the event, including a huge number of game demos, which attendees can play on the show floor. There will be many other publishers involved too.
