FULL STORY ======================================================================

Gamescom 2023 is right around the corner, but if you were expecting to see hundreds of new games announced at Opening Night Live, you might want to temper your expectations.

Last years Opening Night Live was full of trailers for both previously announced games and brand-new titles, including New Tales from the
Borderlands and Moving Out 2 , as well as the re-reveal of Dead Island 2 . Speaking to VGC ahead of this years show, however, host Geoff Keighley warned that Opening Night Live 2023 will be less about announcing brand new
projects.

Its going to be an exciting show with new looks at many announced upcoming games like Alan Wake 2 , and Black Myth Wukong , Keighley told VGC. This
years ONL is less about announcing brand new projects, and more about giving fans updates on some of the biggest games due out over the next year.

In case you still need to add the dates to your calendar, Opening Night Live will start at 8PM CET on August 22, and will run until 10PM CET. Gamescom itself will kick off on August 23 in Cologne, Germany, and will continue
until August 27.

If youre lucky enough to be attending Gamescom in person, youll be able to experience a plethora of upcoming games firsthand , including Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon , Cyberpunk 2077 s Phantom Liberty expansion, and Persona 5 Tactica .

Back to Opening Night Live though, and other than Black Myth Wukong and Alan Wake 2 , the list of announcements is still a total mystery, but as with any game announcement event, you probably shouldnt set your expectations too high - please hype responsibly, folks.
