This year’s gamescom will once again be opened by the Opening Night Live, which promises one or two highlights the evening before.
In the run-up, they now reveal that they can look forward to no fewer than 30 games that will be shown on the stage. These include premieres, updates to existing games, and some surprises. The show itself will again be around two hours long.
Tickets for the gamescom Opening Night
If you want to be there live, you can now book tickets for the event, but these are very limited. These cost 29 EUR and can through the official online store be acquired.
Geoff Keighley, producer and host of the show:
“I’m incredibly excited to be traveling with the whole team to gamescom 2022 in Cologne and to presenting gamescom: Opening Night Live personally and live in front of thousands of fans. We’re back with the big show – with lots of exciting game news, announcements and first looks. It will be great fun to be back in front of the fans – something we haven’t been able to do for a long time. We definitely put on a great show.”
Already the 2021 gamescom Opening Night Live was packed with news about over 30 highly anticipated titles. Almost 6 million people watched the event live via stream, making the show one of the most successful international gaming shows of the year. Trailers for AAA blockbusters alternated with longer gameplay sessions and in-depth interviews with studio guests.
The gamescom Opening Night Live will take place on August 23 at 8 p.m.
