Summary
Gamescom is the largest in-person gaming event in the world, and this year it lived up to expectations with big games on show from The Witcher 3's new expansion, to Alien: Isolation 2. Last year over 350,000 people flocked to the halls of the Koelnmesse in Cologne, Germany to get a chance to see and play the most hotly anticipated games. This year that number of attendees is expected to have been even bigger, with the likes of Xbox and Sega showcasing games to the public alongside indie studios with only one or two developers. This was their sixth time attending Gamescom, which never fails to make me excited about the games industry. When CD Projekt Red announced it was making a new expansion for the hugely popular action-role playing game The Witcher 3, it came as a shock.
