Gamescom 2026 Wish List Targets 11 Reveals as Publishers Confirm Parts of Lineup

3 articles · Updated · GAMINGbible · Aug 16

Summary

  • Eleven hoped-for announcements top the authors’ Gamescom 2026 wish list, led by asks for Crimson Desert DLC, a new Ghost Recon reveal and first gameplay from The Witcher 4.
  • Several picks focus on projects already known to exist but still missing key details, including Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas remasters, a Peak console port, Kena: Scars of Kosmora’s release date and Resident Evil Requiem DLC.
  • Ubisoft features heavily in the wishlist, with calls for both the next Ghost Recon and a first proper look at Assassin’s Creed Hexe after recent updates and teases kept both franchises in view.
  • Nintendo, Sega and Epic also surface in the more speculative picks, from a Professor Layton launch date and a new Sonic game to the tongue-in-cheek request for a Geoff Keighley Fortnite skin.
  • The list reflects a broader expectation that Gamescom 2026 will be packed even beyond the games already confirmed by developers and publishers.
