Join us here to watch today’s Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024 showcase

Just when Geoff Keighley starts to fade from your memory, he returns with a vengeful look – Pop! It’s Gamescom week and it starts tonight with Opening Night Live at 7pm UK time (other Opening Night Live times here). We’ll be following it live and reporting as always here, so you can keep up with announcements while you do something else, or join in with your thoughtful and witty commentary. Keep us company. Please.

What do we expect to see today? Well, probably Geoff Keighley, but also the new Indiana Jones game, Monster Hunter Wilds and Dune Awakening. We’re also expecting Little Nightmares creator Tarsier to reveal his new project, which could be exciting. Then there’s: Diablo 4 expansion Vessel of Hatred, Civilization 7, hero shooter Marvel Rivals, Lost Records (the project from the creators of Life is Strange), Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 (which was recently delayed) and Black Ops 6. Keighley’s best friend Hideo Kojima has also tweeted out enigmatic silhouettes of actors who presumably have roles in Death Stranding 2.

And before you ask, “Yes, there will be new games announced,” Keighley said on X.

The show is expected to last two hours. You might want to use the restroom before it starts.
