Because one thing is certain: this year is and remains the Gamescom The Heart of Gaming!. Further details will be announced in the coming weeks with refunds for paid tickets also on the way.
It is positive that Geoff Keighley's Geoff Koehley is completely digital and live on 24th August's Opening Night live. You can expect a number of announcements and important revelations as last year.

The GDC 2020 was postponed on August, while the physical event of the E3 2020 was canceled without an online event to take place. Publishers such as Microsoft and Ubisoft will have their own digital presentations, but concrete plans need to be announced. Further information can be obtained in the meantime.
