GamescomUbisoft has confirmed its plans for Gamescom 2026, running August 26 to 30 at Koelnmesse in Cologne, Germany. The publisher's booth in Hall 6.1, Booth C011-B010, opens to the public from August 27 to 30 and pairs hands-on demo stations with developer panels and live broadcasts.
Rayman Legends Retold headlines the show floor

Development is led by Ubisoft Montpellier and Ubisoft Milan, with associate studio support from Annecy, Berlin, Bordeaux, Paris, Düsseldorf, and Shanghai, alongside Pastagames. The soundtrack blends returning themes with new compositions from Christophe Héral and Grant Kirkhope.
The booth offers 15 two-player couch co-op stations running a 20-minute hands-on demo covering the opening level, a dragon-riding sequence, and a returning musical stage. A larger-than-life inflatable Rayman will also be on the show floor. Rayman Legends Retold launches October 1 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and PC, priced at $39.99 for the standard edition, which bundles Rayman Origins: Enhanced Edition.
Alongside Rayman, Ubisoft is running demo stations for Assassin's Creed Shadows, Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, Anno 117: Pax Romana, The Division 2, Rainbow Six Siege, The Crew Motorfest, For Honor, Atomega, and Morbid Metal.
