Forced to go digital thanks to the global pandemic, Gamescom 2020 is finally upon us, this time broadcast to the whole world instead of being the funtimes trawling grounds of just those who can make it to Cologne.
The pre-show for the opening night ceremonies are scheduled for 1:30 p.m. EDT today, just as this post goes live – remember, it’s technically still run from Germany, so it’s already evening across the pond! The big event kicks off at 2 p.m. EDT, with Geoff Keighley hosting. We’re expecting a whole slew of announcements and trailers, mostly notably for our audience WoW Shadowlands, Star Wars Squadrons, and Dual Universe.
We’ll be updating with the big MMO-relevant stuff as we go!

The base edition will run $39.99 digitally, though you can pay as much as $119.99 for various tiers of collector editions.
We’ve posted full details over in a separate WoW-centric post!
