Gamescom is just a week and a half away, and Microsoft is already teasing surprises. The show kicks off on August 11 in Cologne, Germany, and you can check out the action from home.

Microsoft and Activision are teaming up for the Call of Duty multiplayer reveal, live from Cologne. We’ll be reporting live from there, and also from Microsoft’s press briefing on August 12. Microsoft will also be streaming through Xbox.com, the Xbox One Twitch app, and on Windows Phone if you want to keep up with things.
