Here’s what each booth has in store for fans attending Gamescom 2025.
Booth Highlights by Game
Each of HoYoverse’s featured games will have its own style, theme, and activities to the show floor. Here’s what you can expect from each booth.
Genshin Impact
Genshin Impact will showcase its upcoming region, Nod-Krai, with a “Song of the Welkin Moon” themed booth. You’ll be able to explore a fully recreated story scene tied to the new update. It’s also the first time the area will be available to experience offline.
The space will also feature factions from the upcoming version, stage shows with music and cosplay, and merchandise. For context on where the story left off, you can revisit our article on Genshin Impact Version 5.7, which introduced Skirk and a major story chapter. Livestream coverage will be handled by Rocket Beans TV.
Honkai: Star Rail
The Amphoreus-themed booth brings back memories of the flame-chase adventure from “The Eternal Land.” A giant sculpture of Mem will appear overhead, and Pom-Pom and a full cast of cosplayers will be on hand to interact with visitors.
Activities include creating your own chimera, quiz challenges with a life-sized Verax Leo display, and shopping for limited-run items. For more recent developments, check out our earlier coverage of the Honkai: Star Rail x Fate/stay night crossover and upcoming projects teased by HoYoverse.
Zenless Zone Zero
Zenless Zone Zero heads to Gamescom just after its Version 2.1 update, with a booth inspired by the Spook Shack and characters like Alice and Yuzuha. Fans can try the game and take part in the “Mystery Tales Investigation” event. You’ll collect badges, win prizes, and even grab Yuzuha’s lucky charm. There will also be cosplayers and a ZZZ merch area with limited goods and activities.
Everything Coming in the Summer Update
Gamescom 2025 runs from August 20 to 24 at Koelnmesse in Cologne, Germany. You’ll find HoYoverse at Booth C031 in Hall 6 with a full lineup of activities across Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Zenless Zone Zero. Whether you’re attending in person or following the news as it drops, there’s plenty happening across all three games.
