Highlights from the event

Cosmo Tales

Bohemia Interactive is showcasing Cosmo Tales, its brand-new third-person roguelite action-adventure inspired by the retro sci-fi aesthetics of the 1970s and brought to life with colorful visuals and fast-paced gameplay. Developed internally by Bohemia Interactive, the game follows Cosmo and Shifty as they travel through a universe of strange and unique dimensions.

At Gamescom, journalists can get an exclusive hands-on look at the game ahead of its Early Access launch on September 3, as well as a first look at the game's plans for the future. The development beyond the initial Early Access release includes work on additional platforms, new playable vehicles, further story content focused on Cosmo and Shifty, new features and tools to enhance replayability, additional challenges and enemies, and the possibility of local co-op in the future. Future updates may also expand the soundtrack with additional in-game radio content.

About Bohemia Interactive

Our story began with our first game, Arma: Cold War Assault, released back in 2001. Developed by just a handful of people, this PC-exclusive title became a massive success. It sold well over a million copies, received numerous industry awards, and was praised by critics and players alike. Since then, we've grown from a ragtag bunch of garage devs to an international family of over 400 professionals, working on Arma 3, Arma 4, Arma Reforger, DayZ, Ylands, Vigor, our proprietary Enfusion engine, and various other projects. Our ambition: to make games that act as platforms for people to explore, create, and connect.
