Gamescom Opening Night Live: How to Watch Online, Start Time and What You Can Expect
Sonic Frontiers, Hogwarts Legacy and Gotham Knights will be among the major games appearing in Geoff Keighley's show on Tuesday.
Gotham Knights, featuring Batman allies like Nightwing, will appear in Gamescom Opening Night Live.
Video game trade show Gamescom runs Wednesday to Sunday in Germany. Before that, Tuesday's Gamescom Opening Night Live (aka Gamescom: ONL) will reveal many of the upcoming games that'll be showcased. You can expect to see Sonic Frontiers, Hogwarts Legacy, Gotham Knights, The Callisto Protocol and Return to Monkey Island, among others.
Ubiquitous host Geoff Keighley tweeted a trailer featuring some of those games, but you'll need to tune in if you want to see more.
How to watch
It'll be livestreamed on The Game Awards' YouTube channel. We've embedded it above, so you can watch right here.
When does Gamescom Opening Night Live start?
It begins Tuesday at 11 a.m. PT, 2 p.m. ET, 7 p.m. BST and Wednesday at 4 a.m. AEST (in case any Australians want to get up super early). It'll last around two hours.
What to expect
Keighley noted that more than 30 games will appear, and tweeted a helpful sample:
- Sonic Frontiers
- Hogwarts Legacy
- The Callisto Protocol
- The Outlast Trials
- Gotham Knights
- Unknown Worlds new IP
- Honkai Star Rail
- Goat Simulator 3
- High on Life
- The Expanse: Telltale Series
- Return to Monkey Island
A leaked Japanese Sonic Frontiers trailer suggested a Nov. 8 release date, so it's likely that'll be revealed officially on Tuesday. We should probably expect some surprises too. Maybe we'll get a firm release date for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor as well?
