Gamescom Now
Gamescom Now, the content hub successfully launched last year, will be significantly expanded. It will be the first go-to source for all world premieres, news, games and events. All of Gamescom’s shows like Gamescom: Opening Night Live can also be seen here. The diverse spectrum of the gaming world is shown in all its variety in the central portal with different areas like content creator, eSports, cosplay, indies, and merchandise. There is no need to buy a ticket for Gamescom now so that as many fans as possible get the chance to experience Gamescom.
