Making a return with its host Geoff Keighley on June 10, Summer Game Fest is back right before E3 starts. The show will host some massive names in gaming such as PlayStation, Capcom, Sega, Mihoyo, Square Enix, Ubisoft, and many more!
The previous year, Keighley had hosted the festival of reveals, updates, and celebrations from May to August. The event stood as a replacement to E3, absent due to the COVID-19 lockdown. The event featured many of the big names we can expect to be there this year too. Companies hosted their individual digital conferences and events and were united under the same Summer Game Fest brand.
It seems we can expect much of the same this year as well, as the official website shows another series of events from various game publishers and platform holders, which are planned to begin after the opening show. Keighley stated that he would be able to run things from a live show on a soundstage this year, with some guests for an audience, as things will be a little less restrictive as lockdown measures are eased.
The entire list of companies we can expect to make an appearance are 2K, Activision, Annapurna Interactive, Bandai Namco Entertainment, Battlestate Games, Blizzard Entertainment, Capcom, Devolver Digital, Dotemu, Electronic Arts, Epic Games, Finji, Frontier, Gearbox Publishing, Hi-Rez Studios, Inner Sloth, Koch Media, Mediatonic, Mihoyo, PlayStation, Psyonix, Raw Fury, Riot Games, Saber Interactive, Sega, Square Enix, Tencent Games, Tribeca Festival, Ubisoft, Warner Bros. Games, Wizards of the Coast, and Xbox.
The event is set to start at 11 A.M. PT on June 10 with a world premiere showcase with performances from Weezer, which includes a new video game soundtrack song. Collectible company Iam8bit will also host a second Day of the Devs, a showcase that features guided playthroughs of games by developers.
