The Geoff Keighley-hosted Opening Night Live event at Gamescom just wrapped up. Arguably the biggest announcement was the closer: a remastered version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt from CD Projekt Red that’s launching in September. But the show also featured a bunch of trailers for others games, including Gears of War: E-Day , Capcom’s upcoming Mega Man sidescroller , and Final Fantasy VII Revelation .
The event took place ahead of a potentially very big fall for the games industry. Grand Theft Auto VI is scheduled to release on November 19th , and the rest of the games industry is largely steering clear of GTA VI ’s launch . That means the next several weeks are packed with major releases — and the calendar just got even busier with the Witcher 3 remaster. GTA VI wasn’t shown, but that’s not really a surprise: that game is set to have a reveal event of its own on Thursday .
Here’s our coverage from Gamescom and Opening Night Live. You can watch a replay of the show on YouTube .
