Coming exclusively to Nintendo Switch on 5th October, Super Mario Party brings the original board game mode back to its roots as four players race across the board searching for Stars, taking advantage of deeper strategic additions like specific Dice Blocks for each character to use. Additional game modes, such as Toad's Rec Room that pairs up two Nintendo Switch consoles, plus the Online Mariothon minigame gauntlet, make this one party where everyone can enjoy themselves, and visitors to Nintendo's booth in Hall 9 can try out five of the new minigames themselves as a taster of the fun that awaits.
Other playable titles available throughout the show's run from Tuesday 21st August until Saturday 25th August include:
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate;
- Super Mario Party;
- FIFA 19;
- Dark Souls Remastered;
- Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes;
- Dragon Ball FighterZ;
- Starlink: Battle for Atlas;
- Killer Queen Black."
They also mention what will be shown during the livestream:
"Those who can't attend the show in person can get a deeper look at a selection of already-announced upcoming games on Nintendo's YouTube channel, with a series of videos recorded at its RedCube studio on the gamescom showfloor throughout the week.

Personally i'm very excited to see more Torna - The Golden Country (last year Xenoblade had a good showing where they explained in detail the battle system, and the titan Uraya in general) and Daemon X Machina, the fact that it will be shown here once again makes me believe that the game might come in the first months of 2019.
