Gamescom Confirms Its Dates And Opening Night Live Showcase Event
<p>Gamescom has <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/gamescom-cancels-on-site-event-shifts-plans-to-all/1100-6476062/">moved to an all-digital event</a> in the wake of <a href="https://www.cnet.com/how-to/coronavirus-and-covid-19-all-your-questions-answered/">coronavirus</a> concerns, and as a result the show is getting a slight date shift. Previously scheduled to take place August 25-29, the new digital event will instead be held August 27-30. That also shifts the date for the Opening Night Live event held by Geoff Keighley, which will now be August 27.</p><p>According to the announcement, Gamescom will now serve as a "content hub" for news and publisher events. Unlike the standard Gamescom, the digital event won't require a ticket since the events will be streaming. Opening Night Live will kick off the show, in addition to some other special events like Gamescom: Awesome Indies and Gamescom: Daily Show. The event will culminate in the August 30 presentation of Best of Show.</p><p>The annual Devcom conference will take place August 17-30, running partly concurrently with Gamescom.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/gamescom-confirms-its-dates-and-opening-night-live/1100-6477387/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>
