It's that time of year again folks, as the gaming industry descends on the city of Cologne in Germany. That's right, Gamescom 2024 is upon us, kicking off next week with Geoff Keighley's Gamescom Opening Night Live show on Tuesday the 20th August. But are you feeling excited about this year's convention?
Historically, Gamescom has always been a bit more reserved than the likes of E3, or even Summer Game Fest. More often than not, the European outing is used to further promote the big games that were first announced months earlier, during the other summer events.
Still, Gamescom usually offers up loads of info on yet-to-be-released titles, be it through new trailers or fresh gameplay footage. We're sure that this year will be no different in that regard.
So, are you hyped for Gamescom 2024? Cast a vote in our poll, and then tell us all about your wildest hopes and dreams in the comments section below.

Really looking forward to Wilds, that's about it.
I'm hyped to hear what Xbox games are coming over next.
I think Gamescom should be decent this year, when you look at all the games that are scheduled for the next few months and 2025. I can see us getting a handful of surprise announcements as well (although nothing too crazy).
I appreciate what Geoff tries to do. But it’s been years and he’s yet to put on a single show I’d consider good.
@BamBamBaklava89 Your assessment is harsh and fair.
My wish list is just the soul reaver 1 and 2 remaster.
They should shift the Gamescom to the old June E3 time slot to become more relevant.
But this is probably easier said than done, because there are other, well established trade fairs in this venue which protect their traditional time slots.
Mildly curious would be my choice of words.
I'm actually really sick of watching this guy on my screen, he is just so unpleasant.
So I'll just recap the world trailers on YouTube after.
Any word if PlayStation is going to be there? I expect a Lego horizon release date announcement.
Lets be honest, the Xbox To PS rumors have really made Gamescom particularly interesting to see whats going on
Excited?
Nope.
I only waiting for 3rd party kids games especially by Outright Games.
Its crazy that gamescom is still here and e3 is noth there.and e3 is more legendary than gamescom.anyways it should be a interesting gamescom.word up son
All i want for rockstar to finally announce gta4 remastered/port
I will break out into my happy dance if there are announcements and videos of Borderlands 4, Mafia 4, and GTA Sechs.
I'm content to toss this on a side monitor and see a neat update or two. Maybe Terry gameplay for Street Fighter, or a character announcement for City of the Wolves? I'm definitely excited to see what the new game by Tarsier is!
I'm not very hyped. Geoff is always so smug, and he usually over-hypes his shows. Still, there may very well be some interesting announcements in this show.
My friends wants to know the release date for mgs delta
Nah these big shows don't do it for me anymore, I find myself playing mostly indies and smaller games nowadays. Surprisingly the games China & South Korea have been pushing out have been more interesting to me as well. I really do hope that there's another game crash that affects all the big AAA Corpos. Then I hope all the employees join various smaller studios so they continue to earn a living. Allowing these studios to swallow up more and more of themselves was the biggest downfall in gaming yet.
I think Gamescom is a bit better than SGF but since it's my day off, I will watch it with low expectations, hopefully I'll be surprised.
@Ken_Kaniff this will be the announcement of the show, if true
@Nem Hey, it’s coming soon to Evercade if you’ve got one of those.
I’m looking forward to Gamescom. I always appreciate these shows, even if they’ve started leaning heavier and heavier into GAAS gunk year after year. I can always hope for Kojima to show up if Keighley is involved.
Go in with low expectations and you'll be fine.
I'm more hyped going through my spam mail folder to see how to grow 3 inches in 2 weeks
New Tarsier game would be nice, maybe something about Wolfeye new game.
Any event relaying information about Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is going to be a joyful occasion. Getting delayed probably means more polish and content, and February will come soon enough. It sucks with the timing as I will be very busy, but such is life.
Gamescon could win this years best award show if they only have a release date for Silksong. Not that I care, just saying.
Fairly decent Bell Curve on the survey after 465 votes though, so that was thoughtfully made. 👍
I want to see Civ VII but it’s not exactly the sort of game that suits this hype manufacturing crap.
Hopefully not a total joke like the vast majority of Summer Game Fest
It would be neat if there's a Sonic X Shadow Generations trailer like there was at Summer Game Fest. Hopefully there's more 06 stages in the Shadow campaign, Kingdom Valley in June was a nice surprise.
I'm excited because two point museum will have a deep dive and a playable demo.
I'm sad I won't go.
But how can you not be excited, it's really only one of the few big events the public can go to within Europe.
Cant wait for all the announcements for announcements for new remakes coming soon.. dont forget to "Wishlist on steam NOW"
I’m super excited for whatever Xbox might announce, that’s what I will be hoping for!
I’m looking forward to seeing something new on MH Wilds.
Personally would love to see an announcement triller for Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered, the new Darksiders which was teased recently, Dino Crisis remake, Croc HD which was confirmed last year early June to be in early development, Chaos Legion and Shadow of Rome remasters.
Sonic generations remaster will probably be there same as Lego Horizon Adventures.
Would love a new trailer and a bit of gameplay for Kotor remake, Wolverine,
Star Wars Eclipse, Jurassic Park Survival.
Also hoping to see something new for Pragmata and for the rumours to be true about FFIX remake and Spyro 4
@DylanP
I know that there’s some gameplay to be shown for Ark 2 other then that I expect something for ES6 and Fable.
Maybe Gears as well, Banjo remasters would be a nice thing to announce there.
Toys for Bob are rumoured to be on partnership with Xbox to make something so maybe it’s Banjo
Only really checking for Kemuri
I hope Geoff has some Doritos!
Geoff peeking is always a delight xD
Meh for me if Sony shows Legend of Dragoon then I'm happy. But does Sony even attend this show.
