With conferences still on hold, the gaming world is enjoying Gamescom 2020 together online instead of in person. The first night of the event already gave us looks at Fall Guys season two and a new Dragon Age game, but there was so much more to see. Awards, trailers and more, it’s all here in this fifteen minute video that will get you quickly caught up on some of the latest news in gaming.

We knew it was coming, but we finally got our first sneak peek at Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout season two during today’s Gamescom livestream. Unlike its inaugural run scheduled to wrap up next month, the game will take on a theme this fall: medieval fantasy.

That means knights, wizards, Vikings and even colorful dragons for the costumes. And new games “inspired by epic quests from the Middle Ages” that incorporate elements like castles, drawbridges and swinging axes. We don’t know any of the new rules yet, but some of the boards will have blocks and ramps that can be moved around. Hopefully none of the new levels will be as infuriating as Slime Climb.

In the entertainment world, it doesn’t get much bigger than Star Wars. Likewise, in the gaming world, The Sims is another massive, enduring franchise. So, I can’t say I’m shocked to hear that those world are colliding with The Sims 4 Star Wars: Journey to Batuu. It’s a new game pack for The Sims 4 that arrives on September 8th.

Based on the trailer, familiar Star Wars characters, droids, spaceships and the universe’s distinct visuals have been lovingly translated to work in The Sims 4 — it actually looks pretty good. Naturally, your Star Wars Sim will have his own home you can decorate as you wish, and you can socialize throughout Batuu. You’ll find missions to advance a story set there that unlock various collectibles for your Sim, and eventually you can earn a lightsaber and droid of your own. As for other characters you might meet, this looks like it is set during the most recent film trilogy — Rey and Kylo Ren were in the trailer, and you have to figure there will be more familiar characters as well.

Gamescom’s Opening Night Live event was chock-full of announcements, with BioWare fans getting a treat early on in the livestream: a look at the next Dragon Age game, though at this point we have neither a full title nor release window.

Despite being announced almost two years ago, the game is still at an early point in its production cycle, according to GM/VP Casey Hudson. Most of the stream featured staff talking about their work at BioWare, but we did get a look at some of the concept art like castles on cliffs and underwater fights. Features that were teased include deeper, more involved NPC interaction. Voiceover recording for characters has commenced as well, including Solas (voiced by Gareth David-Lloyd), Bellara (Jee Young Han) and Davrin (Ike Amadi). 

The Ancient Gods: Part One, the first campaign expansion for Doom Eternal comes out on October 20th. Developer id Software shared a full trailer showing off the upcoming DLC during Gamescon 2020 earlier today.

The trailer shows Doomguy up to his usual hijinks, taking out demons with Eternal’s fun arsenal of weapons, including the Super Shotgun and Meat Hook. For players who didn’t like Eternal’s emphasis on platforming, it doesn’t look like The Ancient Gods dials that aspect of the game back. And if you weren’t a fan of the Marauder, you may not want to watch the end of the clip. That’s because it looks like you’ll have to fight two of Eternal’s most divisive enemy at the same time. Good times.
