While it didn’t feature much of Silksong outside of a brief tease — though there’s plenty more coming very soon — the main event for Gamescom, Opening Night Live, did have plenty to show off during its two hour runtime.
Much of it was expected and teased ahead of time, including fresh looks at Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Ghost of Yōtei, and the second season of the Fallout TV series. There was also a solid dose of horror with games like Resident Evil Requiem, Silent Hill F, and Cronos: The New Dawn.
These were joined by a handful of fun surprises like a roguelike about doomscrolling from Monkey Island creator Ron Gilbert and a hand-drawn anime based on Sekiro.
If you couldn’t watch the whole thing live, here are the highlights. (And be warned, another Geoff Keighley-hosted event isn’t too far off: this year’s edition of The Game Awards is happening on December 11th.)
