Created by the retro FPS veterans at Slipgate Ironworks, Tempest Rising is a return to form for classic RTS (Real-Time Strategy) games.

AEW: Fight Forever

The latest kid around the wrestling game block, AEW Fight Forever, is an upcoming arcade-style wrestling game. Developed by Yukes, the team behind WWE 2K video games, this looks to be a more casual yet fun take on the formula, replete with exciting matches between AEW wrestlers and even mini-games.


Not every game from the company's Digital Showcase has made it to Gamescom, but this is still a varied lineup. The THQ Nordic section will be in Hall 8. As such, players residing in or visiting Cologne, Germany, should not miss the event.

Gamescom 2022 will be hosted from August 23-28, 2022. Besides this, there will also be a digital showcase for Gamescom 2022, likely revealing new announcements and highlights.
