Look forward to Summer Game Fest 2020!

Geoff Keighley announced the Summer Game Fest for 2020, which dubs itself as “an industry-wide celebration of video games. Digital news. In-game events. Playable content. Play the Future, May – August 2020”.

The so-called “Phase 1” of the event lineup has been announced, featuring:

• 2K
• Activision
• Bandai Namco
• Bethesda
• Blizzard Entertainment
• Bungie
• CD Projekt Red
• Digital Extremes
• EA
• Microsoft
• Private Division
• Riot Games
• Sony
• Square Enix
• Steam
• Warner Bros.

Xbox will also be revealing a first look at Xbox Series X gameplay as part of the event, on 7 May, 11 AM ET / 8 AM PT. You can find the event’s official Twitter here. New game announcements should be commencing over the week, so here’s to getting hyped over the various announcements that will be coming out. The “playable content” part of the Summer Game Fest 2020 is curious: does this mean they’ll be releasing demos of games attendees would normally be playing at their booths? Granted, all this speculation would be pretty fruitless and we can only wait to see how it’s done.

With the coronavirus pandemic still ongoing, events have had to move digitally if they want to hold one at all with all the restrictions in place. This won’t be the only event coming up; The Steam Game Festival Summer Edition will be on 9 to 14 June, during the dates where E3 would have been.
