E3 is dead, long live Summer Game Fest. Despite the cancellation of the High Mass video game, players have already filled their summer schedule. In decline for several years now, E3 has let the competition settle. Thus, the month of June promises its share of announcements and presentations.
Installed in the summer programming since 2020, the Summer Game Fest is led by the journalist Geoff Keighley. Taking advantage of its digital format, it supplanted the largest fair in the sector when physical meetings could not be organized during the health crisis.
Summer Game Fest will take place on June 8 live from the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles. The meeting has already warned that the 2023 edition will be “the most important” in history. Expect announcements of new games, but also trailer presentations. In the past, this meeting had made it possible to discover elden ring and announce a multiplayer title in the universe of The last of us.
Other appointments to schedule
June 11 and 12 will also be dedicated to video games. On this occasion, these are events organized by the companies in the sector themselves. On June 11, Microsoft will give more information about its next blockbuster: star field. The title of the Bethesda studio -known for its series elder scrolls EITHER fall – has “still a lot to show”, the developers assured.
This presentation will take place as part of the Xbox Showcase, an event always rich in news. Last year some thirty games were mentioned with the promise of seeing all the titles present at the event released in the next twelve months.
Finally, the last date to consult at the moment, June 12 will be devastated by Ubisoft. After debating whether or not to attend E3, the French publisher decided on Ubisoft Forward, its digital advertising format. However, the event will be held live with the public in Los Angeles, on the grounds of E3.
Not yet announced, other presentations should not fail to be added to the agenda. Summer is the time for announcements and has seen a number of speeches in recent years. Last year, Sony held a “State of Play” and the Switch maker a Nintendo Direct. The two Japanese companies should not fail to find a place to participate in the summer festivities.
