I will be attending the gamescom Opening Night after work. Don't expect too much but maybe a few surprises and cool, new trailers.

I wonder if we'll see any Stadia software that shows features we can only expect on a Stadia game (and not just PiP all the multiplayer screens).

Does anyone got a chart that breaks out start times for each thing in each timezone similar to the E3 one?

At past Gamescoms, do all announcements usually happen on the first day or are there some sprinkled throughout the days.

i expect all big new announcements to happen at the four events that will happen tomorrow, after that it'll mostly be trailers or gameplay demos or smaller announcements.

I'm very curious as to what Capcom has? I'm pretty sure it won't be DLC for any game.

Fanastic write up so far mazi. Cheeky of me to ask but will there be a spoiler-free thread like what we do with the E3 showcases? I'm not expecting anything major being announced but would be nice to have just in case I'm late back from work (Got a very narrow window to get back lol). :)

What are the chances we see anything new from Pokemon Sword and Shield? Or is Nintendo just focusing on indies here?

probably 0. nintendo is doing live demos for luigi's mansion 3, link's awakening, astral chain, DQXI, mario & sonic at the olympic and witcher 3, so those are the only ones that may get new info. pokemon sw/sh is playable to the public tho, so we may get new footage but it'll probably be an old demo.

I am very excited for this evening.

Except the Death Stranding stuff. I can't decide whether I want to watch it or stay full blackout until November...

Tbh I have watched everything released for that game and none of it still makes sense. I also feel like nothing has been spoiled because there isn't a single person who still could possibly even know what that game is about.

Sucks that a few events will be when it's late here in the evening but hopefully I don't miss out much.

Looking forward to all of them even when some was already leaked
