Microsoft shared its Xbox Gamescom schedule ahead of the big event’s opening night, and it’s full of upcoming Xbox games and big expansions. Everything from Stalker 2 to Avowed and even Forza Horizon 5 is on the list, though if you’re expecting surprise news for the likes of Fable and Xbox’s big reveals from Summer Game Fest, you might be in for disappointment.

Xbox is hosting a livestream every day after August 20’s Opening Night Live, and each stream is available for anyone to watch – no traveling to Germany required.  If you are visiting, check out our handy guide to the Gamescom entrances and venue. It's a more confusing place than you might expect.
