E3 has been the marquee gaming event for years now, except for when it had to be canceled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. A physical event was supposed to be held this year, but as per rules set by the Los Angeles Convention and Tourism Development Authority, the event had to be canceled.
However, there is no cause for worry as gamers will still get to see their favorite developers present new projects in an all-online E3 event that is set to kick off on June 12. What’s more, ESA has finally revealed the schedule for the event, and they’re quite a few heavy-hitters set to appear.
On June 13, i.e., Day 2, fans can look forward to the joint Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase, which will be held at 10 AM PT. Day 2 will also comprise a special presentation from Square Enix alongside the PC Gaming Show and the Future Games Show, all of which should include major new gaming announcements. Warner Bros. Interactive will also have games to show on June 13, including Back 4 Blood – the spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead. 24 Entertainment is also scheduled in for showcase on June 13.
Day 3 will be held on Monday, June 14, and will mainly focus on indie developers, Take-Two Interactive, Mythical Games, Freedom Games, Razer, along with one gaming giant – Resident Evil’s Capcom. Verizon and Intellivision are also on the books for Monday at E3, though it is not clear what they are going to show us.
Tuesday the 15th will be the final day of E3 2021 and will begin with the highly-anticipated Nintendo Direct presentation at 9 AM PT. The Nintendo Direct sub-event will consist of about 40 minutes of game reveals, followed by a three-hour-long Nintendo Treehouse: a live presentation that will offer more in-depth looks at gameplay. Additionally, Nintendo will share the spotlight on Tuesday with Bandai Namco and Yooreka Games.
And finally, E3 2021 will sign off with the Official E3 2021 Awards Show. With an event this packed, gamers can expect many announcements and reveals to come from June 12 till June 15. It’s going to be a hell of a ride!
