Streaming on: Twitter, Facebook, Twitch, YouTube, the GamesRadar+ website, and BiliBili

It's the first in-person Gamescom since 2019, and the Future Games Show is set to take full advantage of having so many devs in one place. Expect a buffet of trailers and presentations from games as varied as Layers of Fears, Deliver Us Mars, and—what else?—Goat Simulator 3. If you want to gorge on AAA blockbusters or sample a selection of fine indies, or you're just way into goats, the show will have something for you.

It's all being hosted by Christopher Judge—whose rich baritone you'll recognise as Kratos from God of War—and Danielle Bisutti, who voices Freya. Together, they'll guide you through the many treats and goodies that have been prepared for this year's show. Personally, I'm hoping for the "Boy!" count to reach stratospheric levels.

Make sure to keep an eye on the show's Twitter to keep on top of any updates. And once you've seen the show, don't forget to check out the Future Games Show Steam page to get your hands on playable demos of some of the games showcased.

One of Josh's first memories is of playing Quake 2 on the family computer when he was much too young to be doing that, and he's been irreparably game-brained ever since. His writing has been featured in Vice, Fanbyte, and the Financial Times. He'll play pretty much anything, and has written far too much on everything from visual novels to Assassin's Creed. His most profound loves are for CRPGs, immersive sims, and any game whose ambition outstrips its budget. He thinks you're all far too mean about Deus Ex: Invisible War.
