Since Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024 is airing from Germany, this means it’s occurring rather early in some regions. (Or in the very early morning on a different day for some regions.) Couple this with the show happening on a Tuesday and there’s a good chance you might be far away from your computer when Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024 is actually live. You can, of course, sneakily watch it on your phone, but, if you’d prefer to properly enjoy the show, you’ll be able to watch it back on the Gamescom YouTube channel.
