Simple present tense is the most common tense that is used to talk about future in spoken German. The time should usually be specified, and the future event must be clear in this sense. It can be used for talking about future plans or promising something.

This tense is usually for predictions, emphasis, and also promises related to the future. It sounds more formal in comparison to simple present.
