BEST OF GAMESCOM 2018

AS EUROPE’S BIGGEST GAMING EVENT GAMESCOM 2018 COMES TO AN END, LET’S GO THROUGH THE MOST RECOMMENDED GAMES OF THE YEAR MUCH TO THE GAMERS’ DELIGHT

For one week, every August the city of Cologne transforms into a gamers paradise. From popup fixtures to massive hoardings, you’ll find video games wherever you look. The main event itself is pure bliss. The entire convention centre with a total of 15 halls turns into one massive gaming arena featuring colossal booths from the world leading publishers like Microsoft, Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft, Wargaming and more! In addition to trying out the latest games, you can also check out booths from hardware companies like Corsair, Zotac, Dell all showcasing their latest gadgets as well. The best booth this year in my opinion was Wargaming. A massive installation featuring both a Battleship on the World of Warships side and an actual scale tank that had firing

effects on the World of Tanks side. But let’s not forget what Gamescom is all about, the game. Here are some of the best games I got my hands on at Gamescom 2018. FORZA HORIZON 4 Shaping up to quite possibly be the best Forza

Horizon game, as the franchise heads to the UK. It brings with it a new seasonal approach with ever changing weather and landscapes that will not only affect how you race, but areas you can access. The visuals looked stunning, the demo was running flawlessly in 4K via an Xbox One X and I can’t wait to see what the PC version can do! Overall a very easy to pickup racer, especially with the new drift mechanics that is sure to appeal to all kinds of gamers.
