At a time when we have only heard absences and then cancellations, which resulted in the cancellation of E3 2023, we finally have good news for another major summer event.

Gamescom has just confirmed that Nintendo will attend the fair in Cologne in person. The company had been absent in recent appointments, both face-to-face and digital (it has been absent since 2018), but the Japanese giant does obviously think it has a great reason to make a comeback this year.

Logically, it may be attending to boost releases coming in the second half of the year, once the Tears of the Kingdom earthquake has passed. But there are those who point out that the German fair would be the ideal setting to make such a momentous announcement as the successor to Nintendo Switch.

We will have to wait until August 23 to find out, as that's when Gamescom 2023 begins.
