Watch On

Several upcoming Meta Quest games will be appearing on the virtual stage including the first real gameplay footage of Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded, which we got a sneak peek of back in June. This one's a total rebuild of the game designed for VR, which should be quite exciting given the potential the PSVR version of Hitman 3 had.

First Escaping Wonderland gameplay should be making an appearance, hopefully solving the mystery of how the game is played. Combat Waffle Studios, the folks behind the ever-successful Ghosts of Tabor, will be showing off Grim and Silent North, two new multiplayer games that are sure to keep players coming back regularly for more.

Studio nDreams will be sharing updates on announced projects and are even revealing a brand new title, plus Vertigo Games is said to be announcing a surprise game announcement that we're sure to love. Flat2VR Studios, the folks behind incredible VR ports of classic PC games like Doom and Half-Life, will be giving everyone a sneak peek of what's coming next from them. Even Schell Games will be there, sharing updates for Silent Slayer, my favorite horror game of the year so far.

All of it is timed alongside Gamescom 2024 which takes place annually in Germany. Thankfully, you won't have to buy a plane ticket to see it with this showcase in store! Stay tuned for the show on August 15.
