Konami has announced that it'll be taking part in this year's gamescom, the "world's largest" video game event, teasing some new announcements set to be revealed during the show.
gamescom 2021 will be an all-digital event held from Wednesday 25th - Friday 27th August, and will feature content from publishers like Sega, Ubisoft, Team17, EA, Bethesda, Xbox, and more. Konami's attendance will include new announcements and content for eFootball and Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel:
"As a gamescom partner, KONAMI will feature new announcements and content for the recently announced eFootball, the free-to-play football simulation platform, and Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, the most complete Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME title yet.
Nintendo has yet to announce any plans for gamescom 2021, although with plenty of third-party publishers already on board, we can expect to see plenty of Switch titles on show just like last year.
"At gamescom 2021, you can expect, among other things: 100% entertainment and news with gamescom: Opening Night Live, gamescom studio and gamescom: Awesome Indies, 100% gaming content in one place with the completely revamped content hub gamescom now, 100% community atmosphere and epic adventures thanks to the brand new community action gamescom epix and 100% indie power with the Indie Arena Booth Online exclusive at gamescom now."
Will you be tuning in to this year's event?

Hm, hopefully they have something else up their sleeve. It’s time they brought Chi No Rondo and Symphony of the Night to a physical cart to the Switch.
PES for Switch finally? I just want someone to give EA a swift kick to their nutty sackle.
@XenoShaun PES for pachinko more likely.
Oh nice. I dare say there will be something for Switch folk.
They are missing a trick not putting PES on the console. But this new free to play model usually suits being thrown on everything.
Silent Abandoned Hills from Blue Kojima Box Productions for PlayStation 5
@Daniel36 They still haven't rung that IP out to dry on Pachinko yet? Konami are tamer than they use to be.
GIVE US A GOEMON COLLECTION YOU COWARDS
Wait, Konami makes video games?
Would be a nice opportunity to announce MGS HD Collection on Switch, although I know it's more of a wet dream than a certainty
@mattesdude apparently they do... huh you learn something new everyday!
Maybe something for Castlevania 35th? I’d like to see either Castlevania 5 or a remastered SotN.
New Frogger game perhaps?
I'd love to hear about that Castlevania Advance Collection that was rated, but this seems to lay out that they just have announcements for new content for those two listed games.
Don’t care about Yugioh games unless they bring back Tag duel
expectation: reveal a Castlevania game that show the 1999 battle teased in Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
reality: reveal a Castlevania game for Pachinko or mobile.
eFootball is not coming to the Switch.
...from the makers of such hits as Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pichenko Silent Hill.
Honestly I would love to see the first four MGS games on switch, they would all work just fine, and being able to play them on the go would be quite lovely. Though to be fair, MGSV could technically work, it was on the PS3/360, though it would still look very rough.
Please give us something from the back catalog, Castlevania, Contra, etc.
crickets chirping
Darn, i was hoping for something good. I know they used to make stuff i liked, but can't remember what, lol.
The castlevania collection probably may be revealed but I doubt it
**Konami makes announcement**
