The brand returned to the biggest consumer gaming event that takes place annually in Cologne, Germany, with a first look at Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and new gameplay for The Outer Worlds 2, Ninja Gaiden 4, and a new DLC for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, called The Order of Giants.

The main highlight of Gamescom 2025 is the Gamescom Opening Night Live showcase on Tuesday, August 19th, which is set to bring us around two hours' worth of reveals, including for some of the biggest upcoming Xbox releases.

Fans of FromSoftware's Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are in for a treat, as an official anime adaptation of the 2019 game is in the works. Announced during Gamescom 2025 and produced by ARCH, Sekiro: No Defeat will directly adapt the story from the game with fully hand-drawn art. The anime series will be streamed exclusively on Crunchyroll.

Xbox at Gamescom 2025 brings Black Ops 7 gameplay, Indiana Jones DLC, The Outer Worlds 2, and a Fallout TV teaser.

Silksong will be available to play on the new Xbox Ally devices at Gamescom, just months after Xbox president Sarah Bond revealed in June that Silksong will be available “at launch and in Game Pass” when Asus’ new handhelds launch later this year.

Gamescom’s Opening Night Live showcase is once again here to highlight games coming your way in the near future (and beyond). Hosted by Geoff Keighley, the creator of The Game Awards, the stream primarily focused on new or first looks at previously announced games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Resident Evil Requiem, and Hollow Knight: Silksong.

During Gamescom 2025 ONL, Wargaming, the developer behind the massively popular World of Tanks franchise, unveiled World of Tanks: HEAT, a standalone tactical shooter that takes the series in a new direction.
