Gamescom 2024 recently came to a close, and after the death of E3, this seems to be the largest in-person convention in the industry right now. Until last year, Gamescom used to sit in a weird spot in the calendar, where it was too late to announce new games releasing in the same year and too early to announce new games coming out next year.
So poor Gamescom used to be left with focusing on games that were already announced. This year however, things have changed quite a bit, with multiple world premiere trailers being showcased at Gamescom . I guess part of the reason is that the summer showcase events have become way too crowded, and the game awards show in December is also quite crowded, so Gamescom currently feels like an unexplored area. However, it still has a long way to go before filling the gap left by E3, at least in terms of anticipation and excitement. With that said, let’s have a look at some of the announcements made at Gamescom that I felt were worth highlighting. These include a mixture of new and previously announced games.
