It was earlier in the year when we got our first look at Chorus. The game will be a crossgen title space combat title with a unique name and look. While coming to both current and new generation systems, developer Fishlabs are definitely pushing the next generation versions as the most definitive with reduced loading for its open world elements. And we’ll be getting a look at it soon.

As announced on his official Twitter, host Geoff Keighley revealed that the game’s global gameplay debut will be at Gamescom Opening Night Live. It’s referred to as the “next gen space combat shooter,” so it’s likely that the footage shown will be from next generation consoles. We’ll finally get to see the game in action, and we get what looks to be a very small tease of it below.

Chorus is set to release in 2021 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PC and Stadia. Gamescom Opening Night Live will occur tomorrow, August 27th.

Tomorrow, see the global debut of gameplay from the next-gen space combat shooter CHORUS from Deep Silver during #OpeningNightLive

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is not far from launch, and over the last few weeks, we’ve seen quite a bit of gameplay footage of the upcoming platformer. Soon, we will be seeing more. 

Geoff Keighley recently took to Twitter to confirm that there will be “a new world premiere” for Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time at Gamescom Opening Night Live tomorrow. What that entails remains to be seen, but new gameplay footage seems like a pretty safe bet. 

Gamescom Opening Night Live is certainly looking like it’s going to be a packed show. It will be over 2 hours long and feature 38 games. New gameplay for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart will be shown off, while we will be getting updates on the likes of Little Nightmares 2, Destiny 2, and Mafia: Definitive Edition as well. Meanwhile, it’s been confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will also be at the show, while we can also expect the reveal of Fall Guys: Season 2. 

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time will launch for PS4 and Xbox One on October 2, though recent leaks have suggested that a Switch version could be in the works as well.

The masked hero we've all been waiting for returns: @crashbandicoot joins me for a new world premiere from Crash 4: It’s About Time.

Little Nightmares was a surprise when it was released in 2017. The little (no pun intended) survival horror game saw you have to sneak past all kinds of massive terrors. The game was well-received and managed to sell over 2 million copies, which is no small feat (again, no pun intended I swear) for a title of its size. The game is also set to get a sequel, and we’ll get the world premiere of the gameplay soon.

As announced on Twitter by host Geoff Keighley, we will see the world gameplay premiere for Little Nightmares 2 at the Gamescom Opening Night Live event. The game is said to retain much of what made the original game special, but will see bigger environments and more enemy varieties.

Little Nightmares 2 is set to release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch and PC. It was originally announced to come in 2020, but as of now, there has been no official word on what time frame is expected. Opening Night Live will happen on August 27th.

Last year we revealed @littlenights at @gamescom Opening Night Live.

This year, don't miss the world gameplay premiere of Little Nightmares II during the show!

Gamescom Opening Night Live is looking like quite the stacked affair with games like Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War making appearances. Hangar 13’s Mafia: Definitive Edition can be added to the list as well. According to the series’ Twitter, there will be a new narrative trailer at Thursday’s show.

Mafia: Definitive Edition is a remake of the very first game. Though it maintains the same story and characters, numerous cutscenes have been recreated while a new lighting engine is in place. New vehicles like motorcycles and additional weapons have also been added into the mix.

Those who want to experience the same old school difficulty as the original can also try out Classic Difficulty, which makes ammo scarce, removes most assists while driving and makes the cops a lot more aggressive. Mafia: Definitive Edition is out on September 25th for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Google Stadia. It’s included in the Mafia: Trilogy for $59.99 but can also be purchased separately for $39.99.

Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is perhaps one of the most exciting games confirmed for the PS5 so far, and soon, we’ll be getting another look at it. Geoff Keighley recently took to Twitter to confirm that Insomniac’s upcoming action platformer will be premiering a gameplay demo at Gamescom Opening Night Live this Thursday, August 27.

The upcoming PS5 exclusive joins a long list of games that will be taking the stage at the upcoming event. The show is confirmed to be over two hours long, with 38 games from 18 publishers. Of these, several have already been revealed. We’ll be getting a look at Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War following its full reveal tomorrow, while The Ancient Gods, the first expansion of DOOM Eternal, will also be unveiled in full. Fall Guys: Season 2 will also be revealed, while Destiny 2: Beyond Light – Stasis will be receiving a deeper look as well.

Gamescom Opening Night Live is scheduled for August 27 at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET / 8 PM CEST. We’ll be covering the show live, so stay tuned for all updates.

The Season of Arrivals continues but Bungie is continues to hype up Destiny 2’s next expansion Beyond Light. Though it released a trailer showcasing the different Stasis sub-class abilities, there will be a “deeper look” at the element on August 27th. This will take place at Gamescom Opening Night Live which begins at 11 AM PT on Thursday.

Stasis manifests as ice and is associated with the Darkness. Beyond Light will see players traveling to Europa to face off against Eramis, Kell of Darkness and her House of Darkness. Players will also explore Deep Stone Crypt, a new raid and also the subroutine which created the first Exo consciousness.

Destiny 2: Beyond Light releases on November 10th for Xbox One, PS4, PC, Xbox Series X, PS5 and Google Stadia. Its release coincides with the vaulting of several current locations, activities, Exotic quests and campaigns including the base game’s Red War, Curse of Osiris and Warmind. Stay tuned for more details on Stasis later this week at Gamescom.

Activision has confirmed the next Call of Duty, titled Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War, and will reveal the game in Call of Duty: Warzone on August 26th. If you can’t be fussed to load up Warzone then aside from waiting on the trailer to hit YouTube, simply tune into Gamescom Opening Night Live. Host Geoff Keighley has confirmed a “world premiere new look” at the shooter.

Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War is being developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, and according to rumors, it serves as a reboot of the Black Ops franchise. Not much else is known about it, save for all the Cold War connections, but recent art work teases the possibility of two protagonists. So that’s something.

It remains to be seen if Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War will still release this year, much less for Xbox Series X and PS5 along with current-gen consoles. Stay tuned for more details in the meantime. Gamescom Opening Night Live takes place on August 27th at 11 AM PT and will feature 38 games in total (though they won’t all necessarily be new games).

The next big showcase event for this Summer is Gamescom Opening Night Live, which will kick off the three day digital event. Host Geoff Keighley has promised over 20 games with Season 2 of Fall Guys being one of the confirmed reveals. In a new series of tweets, Keighley has now confirmed that the show will run for two hours and include 38 games from 18 publishers.

First, some clarity: Though there will new games announced, this year’s show will provide updates for titles that have already been announced. As Keighley himself notes, “We aren’t ‘announcing’ 38 new games.” In the next tweet, he also confirmed that DOOM Eternal’s first expansion, The Ancient Gods, would be revealed.

While this does put a dampener with regards to any currently unannounced games, it does widen the field with regards to potential announcements. Of course, this doesn’t necessarily mean we’ll see the likes of FromSoftware’s Elden Ring or anything so keep those expectations in check. Gamescom Opening Night Live takes place on August 27th at 11 AM PT. Stay tuned for more details in the coming days.

A few things on #OpeningNightLive for Thursday:

– Show is LIVE from a studio in Los Angeles. We're being very careful, no live audience.

– Currently 38 games in the show from 18 different publishers.

– Expected run time: 2 hours.

More to share in coming days!

There will be some new game announcements, but like #OpeningNightLive last year, the show is primarily focused on updates from announced titles. So no, we aren't "announcing" 38 new games.

So far we have announced the reveal of the DOOM Eternal Campaign Expansion, and the reveal Season 2 of Fall Guys for Thursday. There will be much more to share in coming days on other titles!

Mediatonic’s bizarre battle royale collection of insane mini games and hilarious ragdoll physics – also known as Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout – has moved from strength to strength since its recent launch, and has been enjoying immense success on both PS4 and PC. But though the game is still rather fresh, it looks like it’s already ready to take a big step forward.

As announced by Geoff Keighley on Twitter, Fall Guys: Season 2 will be unveiled at Gamescom Opening Night Live later this month on August 27. Keighley says it’s going to be a sneak peak, so perhaps it won’t be too extensive a look, but we’re curious to see what it will entail. A release date will probably be announced, but can we expect new features, cosmetics, and games? Here’s hoping.

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is available on PS4 and PC, but the developers have said that they would love to bring it to other platforms as well. You can read our review of the game through here.

Along with the upcoming DC FanDome, Gamescom will be one of the few major digital showcases left for the season. It caps off the Summer Game Fest and despite the physical event’s cancellation, several publishers like Activision-Blizzard, EA and Bethesda will have an online presence at the show. There will also be a Gamescom Opening Night Live and if host Geoff Keighley is to be believed, there will be quite a number of titles.

According to Keighley on Twitter, the live show will feature more than 20 games with “lots to reveal in the next few weeks.” Of course, how many of these will be major announcements remains to be seen. Nevertheless, if last year was any indication, there should be a few big titles to look forward to.

Gamescom Opening Night Live takes place on August 27th and kick off the entire event, which ends on August 30th. Currently, Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park fame is confirmed to be composing music for the live show. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks.

Just two weeks until @gamescom Opening Night Live. We're excited to be doing a LIVE show for you with 20+ games, lots to reveal in the next few weeks! pic.twitter.com/4eNpTxNZxX
