This means gamescom is hosting on-site business and entertainment areas, while simultaneously running online options for both segments.\u00a0 For business-centric work, gamescom biz will offer users interactive digital presentations, on-demand streaming options, and standard meetings, chats, and video calls. Gamescom\u2019s developer conference, devcom, is also utilizing this hybrid structure with multiple offerings for in-person attendance and for those tuning in online.\u00a0 Outside of business reasons, a big part of gamescom returning to a somewhat physical form was getting fans a chance to experience games hands-on. There will be multiple safety protocols in place to make sure visitors are safe, and one will be using a digital queuing system to keep things rolling and players socially distanced.\u00a0 Likewise, gamescom now will act as a hub for trailers, streams, and announcements coming out of the event. Gamescom 2021 begins with devcom on Aug. 23, with the gamescom Opening Night Live broadcast produced by Geoff Keighley returning on Aug. 24 to start the event properly.\u00a0 You can learn more about all of gamescom\u2019s digital and physical offerings on the event\u2019s official website, along with a full schedule and information about on-site protocols also available.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Gamescom-Logo-660x330.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374425"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=374425"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374425\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":374455,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374425\/revisions\/374455"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/232497"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=374425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=374425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=374425"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=374425"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=374425"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=374425"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=374425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
