Watch all the new PC game trailers right here
Geoff Keighley and his Gamescom jamboree unveiled dozens of new PC games this evening as part of his Gamescom Opening Night Live stream, and we've gathered up every last trailer into one handy post. Whether you missed the stream or just want a handy recap of what went down, here's everything you need to know from Gamescom's Opening Night Live bonanza.
You can catch up on the stream here if you feel like re-living the event as it happened, but you'll find every new game announcement and all the important trailers in our list below. In the pre-show, we got new trailers for Bandai Namco's anime adventure Scarlet Nexus, scary firefighter 'em up Quantum Error, and the playground mode for Codemasters' soon-to-be-released Dirt 5, which is coming out on October 16th, but in the show proper there were over 35 games shown off. From an in-depth look at Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and the next Destiny 2 expansion to what's going on with Fall Guys Season 2, these are all the new PC games announced during Gamescom Opening Night Live.

Dragon Age 4 - new first look

Following the success of its Portal spin-off, Headup Games' physics-based bridge build 'em up is getting a new Walking Dead spin-off.

Everyone's favourite pair of animal detectives are back in business. Developer Happy Giant only showed us a very brief glimpse of the game in action, and even suggested that it might be coming to VR headsets, too.
