Gamescom, the world’s largest gaming expo, is only a few hours away from opening their doors to the masses. To kick things off, NVIDIA is hosting a special GeForce gaming event today in Cologne, Germany that most everyone suspects will feature the launch of the company’s latest flagship GPUs, the RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti.

If you’re in Cologne, you can actually get into the event, which Nvidia says via a blogpost will be “loaded with exclusive, hands-on demos running on the hottest upcoming games, presentations from some of the world’s biggest game developers and some spectacular surprises.”

NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang will be delivering a keynote at the event.

The event begins at 6:00 PM CET (local time here), and if you’re not going to be able to make it, you’ll be able to check out the livestream below.
