Biggest Announcements at Gamescom 2026

Plenty of games showed up, but these are the biggest announcements at Gamescom 2026. These are the ones I think you should care about most:

1. Roco Kingdom

Roco Kingdom is a creature-collecting RPG where you explore the world, collect more than 400 Jinies, attend Magic Academy classes, build your own home, and battle other players. Its turn-based combat uses an 18-class system, so team choices and matchups matter.

2. Ananta

Ananta is an open-world RPG set across large cities where you can fight enemies, drive vehicles, explore with different characters, and take part in activities outside the main story. Its mix of action and everyday city activities makes the world feel more like a place to explore freely.

3. Gears of War: E-Day

Gears of War: E-Day takes the series back to the beginning of the Locust invasion, following Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago. Along with its story campaign, the game introduces larger multiplayer battles with 12-player Horde Siege, so teamwork is going to be a bigger part of the experience here.

4. Final Fantasy VII Revelation

Final Fantasy VII Revelation continues Square Enix's modern take on the Final Fantasy VII story. The big question is how the next adventure expands its world, combat, and character stories as the trilogy moves toward its conclusion. I am excited for it!

5. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Songs of the Past DLC

The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past immediately stands out because it gives you another reason to return to Geralt's world years after the original game. Will you play this one?
