Update: An official statement for Gamescom 2020 has now been released, which we have below.

This story is developing and we will update as the organisers respond to this situation.
Gamescom statement
Even though not all details are known at present, the nationwide ban on major events until the end of August will also affect the planning for Gamescom 2020. Furthermore: Gamescom 2020 will definitely take place digitally! We will provide further information shortly.
