It’s official: E3 is coming back this year, and it’ll be an all-digital event. The event will run from June 12-15 and will feature appearances from several of gaming’s mainstay companies, including Nintendo and Xbox. The show is apparently expected to be in-person again starting next year (cross your fingers the world gets sorted out by then).
The website describes the show as “an all-virtual event that will engage everyone, everywhere” and “a reimagined and hyper-engaged digital experience.” Note that this is the first time the show has gone digital. It was canceled full-stop last year also a first in the show’s history. Most of the major companies still had their own digital events, but we had no one definitive summer event to make up for E3’s absence.
E3 is back! Virtual showcase set for June 2021
It’s fair to say we’ve been through a lot in the last year. It wasn’t a total surprise when it was announced that E3 2020 would be cancelled due to the pandemic. Thankfully the long-running event is returning for 2021 in an all-virtual showcase.
Yes, it’s “game on” again for the Electronic Entertainment Expo, with early commitments from gaming giants like Nintendo, Xbox, Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft, Take-Two Interactive, Warner Bros. Games and Koch Media, with more to come. The event is scheduled to run from June 12 through June 15.
E3 2021 will bring the latest news and games from developers directly to fans. It’s set to be a completely free event, meaning audiences can tune in from around the world to be part of the showcase.
