Much like backpacks and lunchboxes showing up in the seasonal aisle of your local Target, nothing heralds the end of summer like Opening Night Live. Hosted by Geoff Keighley, ONL is a video game showcase much like Summer Game Fest. It’s the event that kicks off Gamescom 2024 — a video game expo held primarily in Germany — and is traditionally the final video game event of the summer.
And this year featured plenty of expected games, like Starfield’s Shattered Space expansion, Sid Meier’s Civilization 7, Marvel Rivals, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, along with a few surprises, including the announce of Borderlands 4, a new Mafia game, Genshin Impact launching on Xbox, and word that Monument Valley 3 is coming later this year to Netflix.
If you weren’t able to tune in live, here are all the biggest trailers and announcements.
