It’s Fallout time, and I’ve got spurs that jingle-jangle-jingle
Bethesda Game Studios already confirmed that we’ll be seeing a trailer for the second season of the Fallout TV series during this presentation.
Ahead of the showcase, we also got our first drop of images, showing different members of the cast both after and before the atomic bombs fell.
I’m fascinated to see just what they’re willing to share with the first trailer, and I cannot wait for this season’s premiere in December. I’m calling it right now, we’ll get just a GLIMPSE of a Deathclaw in this first-look. — Samuel Tolbert, contributor
Haha, I got in here first, and nobody can stop me talking about what I’m most interested in from this week’s Gamescom festivities! Sure there’ll be some incredible new games announced, and ERMAGHERD SILKSONG! But I’m less fussed by that than I am about the teaser of something new coming to my everlasting favorite, The Division 2.
The image above is the second tease we’ve seen from Ubisoft of snow coming to the game, but beyond that, not a lot else. The first tease promised something “completely new” and long-time fans of the franchise know that snow, itself, is not new. It’s new for the second game, but not for the franchise. That first tease also showed the Capitol Building looking a little different.
Whatever it is, it’s coming out during Gamescom. So that’s basically all I’m really looking out for. — Richard Devine
Thanks to the Xbox Wire blog post last month, we know that Xbox has exciting plans in store for Gamescom 2025, including, but not limited to:
- Hollow Knight: Silksong details and a demo at the event for people to try
- Attendee hands-on experience with the upcoming ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming PC
- A theater experience for The Outer Worlds 2 (a game that is releasing Oct 29)
- Over 20 games for attendees to play
- World of Warcraft: Midnight expansion unveiling
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 reveal on Aug 19
I’m personally the most excited about the Xbox Ally handhelds, and can’t wait to get a peek at the Windows 11 optimization Microsoft has been working on. With any luck, it will make these devices feel more like using a console, with the simple interface similar to a Steam Deck if implemented correctly. — Rebecca Spear, Gaming Editor
