Geoff Keighley took the stage…
and then the trailers started coming.
Two hours of reveals, surprises and new games, with social media basically exploding in real time.
And among all those announcements, two titles immediately stood out.
First…
a brand-new game from the studio behind Genshin Impact.
But forget the colorful open-world vibe for a second.
This one is looking much darker.
The visuals are giving serious Elden Ring energy, with a darker fantasy atmosphere that instantly caught everyone’s attention.
And considering the studio’s track record…
people are already watching this one very closely.
Then came another surprise.
An action RPG heavily inspired by Chinese mythology, bringing legendary creatures, ancient stories and a completely different visual identity to the genre.
And honestly…
it looks incredible.
That’s what made this Gamescom opening so interesting.
It wasn’t just another collection of sequels and predictable announcements.
There were genuine surprises.
New worlds.
New studios.
New gameplay ideas.
And enough trailers to completely destroy everyone’s gaming backlog.
But these two weren’t the only games getting people talking.
Across X and Reddit, gamers were immediately ranking their favorite reveals, analyzing every frame and trying to figure out which of these new titles could become the next big thing.
And that’s basically the Gamescom effect.
You watch one trailer…
Then another…
Then suddenly you’re adding five games to your wishlist that you didn’t even know existed an hour earlier.
For Moroccan gamers, it’s especially interesting because Gamescom has become one of those events where the entire gaming community can discover what’s coming next at the same time.
Whether you’re into RPGs, action games, fantasy or completely new experiences…
there was something here for you.
And if you missed the show?
Don’t worry.
Because we’re already going through the biggest announcements.
The games that surprised everyone.
The ones that look genuinely promising.
And the ones that might disappear from everyone’s radar in three months.
So, among everything Gamescom just showed us…
which game actually deserves your attention?
The next big RPG could have just been revealed.
And judging by the reaction online…
2026 isn’t finished surprising gamers yet.
