More on E3 2021:
E3 2021 was the 26th E3, during which hardware manufacturers, software developers, and publishers from the video game industry will present new and upcoming products. The event, organized by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), ran as a virtual online only event with free access to all, from June 12–15, 2021.
Virtual events included keynote sessions from major publishers broadcast from a live stage in Los Angeles, an awards show, and a preview night, as well as helping companies to hold online private meetings with media and businesses. Because of the online-only nature, the event had been rebranded for the year as the Electronic Entertainment Experience 2021 rather than the standard Electronic Entertainment Expo. Greg Miller, Jacki Jing, and Alex "Goldenboy" Mendez will serve as hosts of the virtual events.
E3 2021 followed the cancelled E3 2020 event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and after the ESA could not work out a replacement event in time. The ESA had intended to hold an in person event in 2021 during its normal June dates, as stated to partners in April 2020, but had to alter their plans due to ongoing COVID-19 concerns. While the 2021 event was entirely online, ESA plans to return to an in-person event by 2022. E3 2021 will be free for everyone to attend.
Among companies participating at the event include Nintendo, Microsoft, Capcom, Ubisoft, Take-Two Interactive, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, Koch Media, Square Enix, Sega, Gearbox Software, Bandai Namco, Turtle Beach, Verizon, Xseed Games/Marvelous Inc, Freedom Games, Devious Eye Entertainment, and Binge.com.Konami had planned to participate but announced later they would not be ready to present at E3 as they were deep into development on several projects which they would reveal at a later time.
More ON Summer Games Fest:
Summer Game Fest will feature a slate of digital livestream shows -- including a spectacular live Kickoff show on June 10, hosted by Geoff Keighley, filled with world premieres, a performance by Weezer, and Days of the Devs with iam8Bit and Double Fine. The Kickoff show will be followed by a series of events from game publishers and platforms.
Games journalist Geoff Keighley arranged with numerous developers to run a four-month Summer Game Fest from May to August 2020, helping developers and publisher to host live streams and other events in lieu of the cancellation of E3 and Gamescom. Alongside the Summer Game Fest, Keighley promoted the third Steam Game Festival, following after The Game Awards 2019 and from the previously canceled 2020 Game Developers Conference, which ran from June 16 through June 22, 2020. Over 900 games had demos available on Steam for players to try, alongside a slate of interviews with developers throughout the period.A similar event for Xbox One games occurred from July 21 to July 27, 2020 as part of the Summer Game Fest.
