Round-up: NACON’s lineup for Gamescom 2025

NACON has shared new information about its lineup of games and accessories featured at Gamescom 2025. Attendees at the event are able to get their first hands-on experience with upcoming titles and get a closer look at new hardware designed by the company. For those unable to attend the event in Cologne, we’ve listed all the announcements below. Styx: Blade of Greed During the Future Games Show, NACON revealed new gameplay footage of Styx: Blade of Greed, the next entry in the stealth-action series. The game once again follows the goblin thief Styx, who uses agility and cunning to navigate expansive vertical environments. Players must outsmart enemies and traverse treacherous terrain while searching for Quartz, a rare and valuable resource. Building on the stealth-focused mechanics introduced in previous entries, the new installment emphasizes larger environments that encourage exploration and tactical use of skills. Styx: Blade of Greed is set to launch later this year. Hell is Us Hell is Us was another one of the featured titles at the Future Games Show, accompanied by a new narrative trailer. Set in the war-torn land of Hadea, the game follows Remi as he searches for his origins amid political upheaval and supernatural threats. A demo is currently available, giving players a chance to try out the game ahead of launch. Hell is Us releases on September 4th for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, and will also be supported on GeForce NOW for cloud-based play. Edge of Memories Also featured at the Future Games Show, Edge of Memories is set to deliver a Japanese-inspired RPG experience. Developed by Midgar Studio, the game blends narrative-driven storytelling with expansive exploration across the continent of Avaris. Players follow Eline, a determined young heroine who journeys with companions Kanta and Ysoris to confront a devastating plague afflicting their world. Combat unfolds in real time, allowing players to chain together light and heavy attacks to create visually striking combos. Edge of Memories is planned to release on both consoles and PC in 2026. Dragonkin: The Banished Since its early access debut in March 2025, Dragonkin: The Banished has steadily expanded its content, with Gamescom marking the introduction of its second major update. The hack-and-slash fantasy game places players in a world corrupted by draconic forces, where fast-paced combat and character progression form the core experience. The update introduces the Tracker, a fourth playable character, alongside 17 new skills that expand combat variety. Players will also encounter a fresh biome featuring two volcanic areas and two underground forts, complete with a new dungeon, additional monsters, and multiple bosses. The update goes live for PC players on September 16, 2025. Gear.Club Unlimited 3 The Gear.Club franchise returns with Gear.Club Unlimited 3, which builds on the arcade-style racing of previous entries. The new installment offers two distinct environments: the Mediterranean coast, with sunlit stretches of road, and the mountainous terrain of Japan, offering tight corners and elevation changes. In addition, a new Highway mode allows players to push vehicles to their top speeds amid traffic, adding a sense of risk and momentum to the gameplay. Featuring more than 40 officially licensed cars and a comprehensive career mode, Gear.Club Unlimited 3 will launch in late 2025. Endurance Motorsport Series Developed by KT Racing, Endurance Motorsport Series offers a long-form racing simulation. Designed to replicate the unique challenges of endurance competition, the game emphasizes team strategy, resource management, and consistency across extended race formats. Players are able to switch roles between driver and engineer, balancing on-track performance with tactical oversight of pit stops, vehicle condition, and race planning. Endurance Motorsport Series is scheduled for release in 2026 on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox Series X|S. RENNSPORT Next-gen racing simulator RENNSPORT can be played at Gamescom as well. Developed by Competition Company, the game originally was developed for PCs and has since built up a serious reputation as an esports title. The game is headed to PlayStation and Xbox later this year. NACON Accessories In addition to the above lineup of games, NACON is also highlighting its wide range of gaming accessories at Gamescom. Among the showcased products is the Revolution X Unlimited controller, released earlier in the year and officially licensed for Xbox Series X|S. Designed with customization and precision in mind, it has become a popular choice for players of action and shooter titles. NACON is also presenting its latest RIG headset models, including the RIG 900 MAX from the PRO SERIES, which combines comfort with high-quality sound aimed at both competitive and casual players. Accessories for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 are also on display, ranging from protective cases to travel kits designed for portability and durability. One of the standout hardware announcements from NACON at Gamescom 2025 is the expansion of its Revosim racing wheels to console platforms. Previously limited to PC, the devices are designed with Direct Drive technology to provide highly realistic force feedback for sim racing enthusiasts. The new versions will be fully compatible with PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, broadening access to players across major platforms. Scheduled to launch at the end of 2025, attendees at Gamescom can test the hardware firsthand at the company’s dedicated racing area.
