Yes, Geoff Keighley's Opening Night Live show, but now Xbox and the Future Games Show are ing the lineup.
Gamescom itself is all-digital this year, and runs from Wednesday, August 25 through Friday, August 27. The show will be free and made up of a variety of livestreams over those days, including some focused on developers and business. For fans, there aren't many details on what to expect from the main show, except that Gamescom Studio and Awesome Indies presentations will return in collaboration with IGN.
Expect more details on the remainder of the show as we get closer to the start of Gamescom proper, but for now, there are three major presentations confirmed for the schedule: Geoff Keighley's Opening Night Live, the Xbox Stream, and the Future Games Show.
Check out the schedule below.

August 24 – Destiny 2 Witch Queen Showcase
Bungie's event isn't technically branded as part of Gamescom, but given its close proximity to the other events in the schedule, the Destiny 2 Witch Queen Showcase is certainly there in spirit. The Twitch stream will broadcast on Tuesday, August 24 at 9am PDT / 12pm EDT / 5pm BST.
