These Are the Games Confirmed for Gamescom 2026 So Far

Not long now before Summer is over, but this also means that Gamescom 2026 is almost here! For those who might be unaware, Gamescom is one of the biggest gaming conventions in the world. It is held in August every year in Cologne, Germany, and there are over 1000 exhibitors, including some of the largest gaming companies worldwide. Gamescom also always starts with an Opening Night Live show (OLN) held by Geoff Keighley. This is where you can expect a ton of surprises and where they will show all the latest trailers, new announcements, and releases.

Gamescom 2026 is held from August 26 to August 30, but the ONL show will take place on August 25 at 11:00am PT / 02:00pm ET / 19:00 BST / 20:00 CEST.

There are plenty of developers that will show their games, updates, and reveal new content, and we already know about a few main games that will be making an appearance at the event. Obviously, do not take this as the complete list of attendees! These are ONLY the ones that have been officially confirmed so far:

• Alien: Isolation 2
• The Blood of Dawnwalker
• Control Resonant
• Final Fantasy VII Revelation
• Fable
• Gears: E-Day
• Stranger Than Heaven
• Persona 4 Revival
• Tides of Annihilation
• Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve
• AION 2
• Cinder City
• Metro 2039
• Silent Hill: Townfall
• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Songs of the Past

As you can see, there are some pretty big names in that list! A few of these games are expected to reveal new gameplay, trailers, or other details during the event. Various developers will also have a booth available during Gamescom, so if you are attending live, you can try some of the announced games yourself (if you are patient and willing to wait in line).

And, as mentioned earlier, this is not the final list, but rather just the games that either Gamescom directly announced attending the show, or that were posted via an official statement on their own social media. More developers and publishers could share their plans within the coming weeks, so there might still be more. Developers also love to keep some surprises, and this means that not everyone will share a big reveal beforehand. You can likely expect a lot of exclusive trailers and more during ONL and after.

Gamescom 2026 will likely be full of exciting announcements, but don’t worry, because we will cover everything as soon as more information is available!
