Hmm... I wonder if we'll see..

Valve -> Dota 2 or HL3?
NCSoft -> New Guildwars 2 demo confirmed, maybe Blade & Soul?
Frogster -> Tera EU
Nexon -> Hmm.. they don't have anything for EU.. oh wait.. Vindictus EU (ya, it's still not here)
CDPR -> TW2 Xbox I guess

Being a European con, it'll be Dota 2.

Make of it what you will...

NCSoft’s just confirmed it’ll hold a press briefing at gamescom on August 17.

The conference will take place during the show’s media day inside the Koelnmesse. It’ll kick off at 9.15am and end at 10.00am.

What’s more, a “world exclusive” announcement has been promised for the event. This backs up what NCSoft European sales boss Sarah Rogers told VG247 back in May, saying the company would have a “major presence” in Cologne.

We have no clue what it’s about, but considering the recent blowout from Hamburg a couple of weeks back, you’re about to hear a date for Guild Wars 2.

Germany: we are pumped.

I think Arenanet could throw us something big about GW2 at Gamescom, considering how popular GW is in Germany/Europe. But release date would be unlikely, I just don't see it happening. I think release date will only come when Arenanet posts on guildwars2.com in huge font "It's ready".

It could also be about Blade & Soul, but I don't see why they would specifically do a first reveal at Gamescom.
