Gamescom 2023 highlights: 10 best upcoming games to wishlist now

radiotimes.com:

With the surprises of Opening Night Live, the exhaustion of three days of meetings, and the frustrations of one very delayed flight home all in the rearview mirror, it’s safe to say that RadioTimes.com’s trip to Gamescom 2023 is over.

One thing that will outlast our physical presence at the Cologne-based conference? Our excitement for a lot of the upcoming games that we saw, played and spoke about at the show. And the picture of our Gaming Editor posing with the Gamescom robot. That will last forever.

It was hard to pick just 10 highlights, but we had to draw the line somewhere! Read on, then, and we’ll tell you which 10 games really caught our attention for console and PC (plus a couple of honourable mentions on mobile).

Note: these games are listed in the order that we saw them, rather than being ranked by any other metric!

What a way to start the show! Hellboy creator Mike Mignola was on-site with the developers to talk about Big Red’s latest foray into gaming. We’ve got an interview to share with you later (pray for my to-do list), but for now, we’ll just say that the art style is absolutely stunning.

The gameplay we experienced was a little on the simple side, but it was the tutorial, and it looks like the combat gets a lot cooler later on. The developers also assured us that the game’s rogue-like elements do not make it too difficult for non-expert gamers to enjoy. Phew.

Hellboy: Web of Wyrd launches 4th October. Wishlist now.

Boxing/gaming fans will already know that Undisputed has been out in beta form for a while now. We got the chance to see its upcoming Career Mode, which looks very cool.

You’ll be able to fight your way up from the amateur scene to the elite level, with a custom character of your own
