Gamescom may be taking place digitally this year but, thanks to Opening Night Live, we’ll still get our annual fill of gaming announcements. And it’s on right now.
Gamescom Opening Night Live is a showcase that officially kicks off the European gaming convention and is hosted by The Game Awards’ Geoff Keighley. This is only the second year the showcase is taking place and, unlike last year, this year’s event will be a “fully digital show”.
But the show must go on, and we’re still expecting world premiere trailers, exclusive first looks and big announcements during the Opening Night Live stream – along with some surprises. Want to catch all the action live? Then read on for how to watch Gamescom Opening Night Live 2020.
Gamescom Opening Night Live takes place on August 27 at 7pm BST / 2pm ET / 11am PT (or August 28 at 4am AEST) – that’s today! The show will be two-hours long but there will also be a pre-show beginning 15 minutes beforehand, so if you want the full experience then we suggest tuning in to that too.
Lucky for you, we’ve embedded the Opening Night Live livestream below so you can catch all the action right here:
