There is almost nothing left for Gamescom 2021 to begin . In just three weeks the German fair will begin and Geoff Keighley , its master of ceremonies, has just announced the exact duration of Opening Night Live , its initial gala.

It will be two hours where we will be shown the most anticipated games of this Christmas , like the rest of the video games that will come out much later.

IN EXTRA LIFE

13 cult sagas in video games that dared to reinvent themselves

As for the opening day, the one that was already known: August 25 . While this gala will start at 8:00 p.m. (Spanish time; 1:00 p.m. in Mexico City), without specifying, in any case, which games we will see. Not a clue.

Although if we stick to the Christmas mention and the companies that will be “present” (we put quotes because this Gamescom will be 100% online , remember), such as Microsoft, SEGA, Bethesda, Ubisoft, Koch Media, Electronic Arts, Bandai Namco, Activision or 505 Games, and taking a look at the schedule , we’ll probably take a closer look at all these nearby games:

• Sonic Colors Ultimate (September 7)
• Life is Strange: True Colors (September 10)
• Lost in Random (September 10)
• Tales of Arise (September 10)
• Deathloop (September 14)
• Diablo II: Resurrected (September 23)
• Lost Judgment (September 24)
• FIFA 22 (October 1)
• Far Cry 6 (October 7)
• Battlefield 2042 (October 22)
• Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy (October 26)
• Age of Empires IV (October 28)
• Riders Republic (October 28)
• Forza Horizon 5 (November 9)
• Dying Light 2 (December 7)

Apart from Halo Infinite , of course, where we hope that its exact date will be specified in a damn time, apart from discovering a good handful of surprises of games never seen until now along with others that will not come out until 2022, such as Starfield , which I hopefully Let’s see more than the trailer with the game engine from E3 . The initial gala of Gamescom 2021 confirms its duration: two hours to witness the most anticipated games
