The 11 biggest trailers and announcements from Gamescom Opening Night Live

Gamescom 2020 may not be the in-person spectacle we’ve come to know, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a big deal. The virtual version of the trade show kicked off with Gamescom Opening Night Live, a two-hour-long event that featured plentiful announcements and trailers, covering everything from the Fall Guys phenomenon to upcoming blockbusters like Star Wars: Squadrons and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.

If you missed the show, here are all the biggest reveals.

Dragon Age is still alive

It’s been a long time since we heard about the next Dragon Age. And while BioWare didn’t reveal a new trailer for the game, the studio at least proved it’s still in the works with a behind-the-scenes video full of concept art, early game renders, and lots of staff excited about the fantasy realm.

A better look at Star Wars: Squadrons

Star Wars: Squadrons, which promises to recreate the feeling of piloting an X-wing or TIE Fighter, continues to look impressive, making the wait until its October release all the more difficult.

Medal of Honor in VR

A virtual reality take on Medal of Honor isn’t necessarily the most exciting proposition, but this version is helmed by Respawn, a studio that’s been on a roll with games like Apex Legends and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, not to mention the classic Titanfall 2. At Gamescom, we got a deeper look at how this iteration will play. The new Medal of Honor, called Above and Beyond, will be coming to the Oculus Rift.

Bridge Constructor meets The Walking Dead

2017 saw the release of a seemingly strange mashup that worked well: Bridge Constructor Portal. Now comes another, even less obvious take on the Bridge Constructor franchise with a Walking Dead spinoff. It’s slated to launch this year on just about everything: iOS, Android, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC, and next-gen consoles.
