Another major event in the games industry is almost here with Gamescom 2017 and THQ Nordic has just confirmed their line-up, and teased two unannounced titles.

Outside of E3 that's held annually at the Los Angeles Convention Center, California, the another big event that has established itself over the years has become Gamescom which is held in Cologne, Germany.

"The first new announcement is a brand new original IP. This open world RPG is set in a unique universe and will be a post-apocalyptic kung-fu fable. The second new announcement is a new instalment of a well-known, mysterious and horrific IP," wrote THQ Nordic in their announcement.
