p>The Xbox lineup for Gamescom-Microsoft's debut in-person appearance since 2019, has been revealed.

/p>

p>Microsoft has announced its plans for the Gamescom 2022 (opens new tab) event which will be held in Cologne, Germany later this month. This year's event will be Microsoft's first in-person appearance at Gamescom since 2019, but for the benefit of those who are unable to attend (which is, let's face it is the majority of us) it will also provide livestreamed presentations (opens in new tab) that will include interviews and gameplay from multiple studios and games.

/p>

p>The Xbox Booth at Gamescom livestream will start at 5 am at 8 am PT/8 AM ET on August 25 (it's in Europe, remember) and will continue until 11 am PT/2pm ET. The broadcast in English will be available in German and French as well as Italian, Spanish (Latin American and Castilian), Brazilian Portuguese and Chinese (Simplified). English Audio Descriptions, ASL, BSL, and DGS interpretations will also be available.

p>Gamescom will release a full schedule closer to the date, but this is just an "taste" of what you are likely to see.

p>Microsoft Flight Simulator (opens new tab) (Asobo Studioor Xbox Game Studios Publishing). Gunfire Reborn is (opens new tab)(Duoyi Games/505 Games). Sea of Thieves (opens in new tab) (Rare Games (Rare Games Xbox Game Studios) Lies of P (opens in a new tab) (Neowiz) High On Life (opens new tab) (Squanch Games). Grounded (opens new tab) (Obsidian Entertainment/ Xbox Game Studios). Pentiment (opens new tab) (Obsidian Entertainment/ Xbox Game Studios). https://www.yurock.net/ A Plague Tale: Requiem (opens in new tab) (Asobo Studio / Focus Entertainment) Minecraft Legends (opens in new tab) (Mojang Studios & Blackbird Interactive / Xbox Game Studios) Planet of Lana (opens new tab) (Wishfully/Thunderful) Age of Empires 4 (opens new tab) (Relic Entertainment and World's Edge/ Xbox Game Studios). There's definitely something interesting to be found there. Pentiment, a 16th-century narrative adventure in development at Obsidian, is probably at the top of my list, but Lies of P-the Pinnochio Bloodborne-alike-looks darkly promising too, and of course everyone is waiting for a closer look at Minecraft Legends, the RTS Minecraft spinoff. The indie platformer Planet of Lana, due out later this year is another one that I have high hopes for.

p>For those who are able to attend Gamescom in person, Microsoft will have a selection of games available for public play (including Lies of P and Planet of Lana), as well as the chance to take a picture with, among other creatures including the VASCO robot from Starfield and a five-meter-wide Broodmother spider from Grounded if that's the kind of thing you're interested in. Here's how to enter:
