GamesCom 2024 Just a Game?

“The biggest community in the world” will gather this year between August 21 and 25 for GamesCom 2024 in Cologne. At least, that's the official motto of what is claimed to be the "world's biggest games event." An overview.

Be inspired and moved by these narratives that uniquely portray universal themes and hold a mirror up to us all.
