Gamescom: Opening Night Live, which will stream live on Thursday, August 27, will feature the first full, uncut gameplay demo of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart for PlayStation 5 and world premieres from Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Fall Guys: Season 2, Doom Eternal's campaign expansion, Star Wars Squadrons, World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, and more. Gamescom: Opening Night Live will be streamed live at 11am PT/2pm ET/8pm CEST, and will be hosted by Geoff Keighley of The Game Awards and Summer Game Fest.

[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/06/11/ratchet-clank-rift-apart-gameplay-demo-ps5-reveal-event"] World of Warcaft is set to get its newest expansion, Shadowlands, later this year, and Gamescom: Opening Night Live will premiere Afterlives, the new World of Warcraft animated series that will dive deep into the four realms of Shadowlands. Doom Eternal's campaign expansion, The Ancient Gods, Part One, will also get a first look. This new story will "revolve around an imbalance of power in heaven, and how the Doom Slayer fits into that problem." In addition to the previously mentioned games, Gamescom: Opening Night Live will also give fans a new look at Destiny 2: Beyond Light and a narrative trailer for Mafia: Definitive Edition.
