We've got loads of exciting new things to share with you, and will be streaming to you live from the Koelnmesse, Cologne over the week, be sure to tune in Thursday through Sunday from 10:00 CET and 14:30 CET

You'll be getting daily updates on all the exciting news with a bumper edition of the Newsletter on Monday, so there's plenty for you to get excited about.

That's it - it's quite simple! The streams will begin at the times listed above starting on Thursday and ending on Sunday. There will be lots of opportunities for you to ask questions as we'll be setting up a forum Q&A posts at the end of each day. We'll then try to answer as many questions as possible in a segment the following day.

We'll be giving away incredible prizes every day including the chance to name your own star system, Thurstmaster joysticks, and other in-game unique items you can't get hold of anywhere else.

The streams will then automatically be uploaded to YouTube to watch afterwards, and a separate Gamescom 2016 playlist will be made containing some of the snippets shown throughout the day.

Can't wait to see as many of you as possible there.

Ed, Bo, Zac, Dale and Brett - on behalf of the entire Elite Dangerous team
