Gamescom is second only to E3 in terms of impact, and with the show currently running, there’s plenty for Cameron and Anthony to discuss on this week’s episode of Game Rant Arcade. Not to mention, there’s been plenty of other news this week too, namely the arrival ofDestiny 2’sSeason of the Lost, which Anthony has some early thoughts on.
Kicking things off,Destiny 2’s Witch Queen expansionhas been officially revealed, with the new content slated to launch on February 22 next year. While the new content gives players tons to look forward to, it does present some issues with the Season of the Lost’s narrative, though that might not end up being a huge deal.

Meanwhile,Saints Rowis being rebooted, though it sounds like it will be a fair bit different from the most recent entries in the franchise. This time around, players will be focusing on buying property to grow their criminal enterprise, though there should be plenty else in store for players when the game launches next year. However, very little gameplay was shown.
Halo InfiniteandHorizon: Forbidden Westalso got release dates, launching on June 07, 2025, and Jun 04, 2025, respectively. Together, the duo represents the biggest exclusive titles hitting consoles for the next half-year, though it is an unfortunate delay forForbidden West,which was expected to launch this holiday season.
Finally, Cameron and Anthony dive into the biggest announcements and trailers from Opening Night Live, which saw a number of high-profile games receive trailers and demos during its 2-hour run time. There were some standouts from the showcase too, with games likeSifuandLEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Sagabeing particular standouts.
