Gamescom 2019 is not in demand, completely without queues? No, we just arrived at the exhibition very much in advance

Right from the entrance, we are recommended to destroy all people. The advice is premature, they are already ineffective

And here is the author of the call to the destruction of all mankind! Destroy All Humans They will also show at the exhibition

This makes it possible for reporters to get acquainted with the most important and loud projects of the exhibition without huge lines. Let's see how they realize this right.

Entrance to the exhibition. Recall that this is only the press and invited! What will happen here when Gamescom will open for ordinary visitors?

Times are changing. We all remember that in the canonical photos of the past for the "confrontation" with Xbox, PlayStation was responsible. Did Nintendo take her place by chance?

The territory of Sony. Night

Blacksad is not interested in anyone? Of course not, just the show has not yet begun

Games for virtual reality – not a sensation for a long time
