The Future Games Show is coming back next month for not one, not two, but three exciting shows serving up the best of what Gamescom 2026 has to offer.
The Future Games Show at Gamescom will see the return of the main event. That means world premieres, exclusive trailers, developer deep-dives and possibly even a few demo drops. Back in June, the Future Games Show Summer Showcase featured more than 40 games, so you know you're in for something good.
The fun doesn't end with the conclusion of the main event, either. Immediately after the first show concludes, the team will return with FGS Live from Gamescom. Directly following the show, the FGS editorial team will be reporting live from Gamescom itself in Cologne, Germany. Expect even more world premieres, as well as news and interviews straight from the show floor.
Finally, there'll be an even closer look at the action inside Gamescom itself. For the first time, FGS Best of Gamescom will take viewers into the show, with exclusive booth tours, developer interviews, and a look back at the most exciting announcements of the week.
Future Games Show at Gamescom and FGS Live from Gamescom will both take place on Wednesday, August 26, and they'll be followed by FGS Best of Gamescom as the action in Cologne winds down on Sunday, August 30. You'll be able to watch all three digital shows on Twitch, YouTube, X , Facebook, TikTok, and right here on GamesRadar+, so keep your eyes peeled for more announcements as the show draws closer.

Since then, I've run the news sections at PCGamesN and Kotaku UK, and also regularly contributed to PC Gamer. As you might be able to tell, PC is my platform of choice, so you can regularly find me playing League of Legends or Steam's latest indie hit.
