Here's the main ones that I know outlets like Giant Bomb will be covering. There's a ton of smaller events too, but I imagine anything that matters will be at one of these.

Summer Game Fest KickOff Live!
  • Thursday, June 10 @ 11:00 AM PDT (Your Local Time)
Ubisoft Forward
  • Saturday, June 12 @ 12:00 PM PDT (Your Local Time)
Devolver Digital
  • Saturday, June 12 @ ???
Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase
  • Sunday, June 13 @ 10:00 AM PDT (Your Local Time)
Square Enix
  • ???
Nintendo
  • ???


Dates and times are still coming in hot! Will Nintendo even have a Direct they haven't even said yet! A lot of outlets seems to think they'll be announcing the Switch Pro before the end of the week, but I imagine if they do that it'll just be a short video and not a full Direct.

Square Enix at least is confirmed to be having a presentation, but they just haven't said what the date or time will be yet

Sony is sticking to their guns and no longer attending E3 for the third year in a row (well 2nd year because there wasn't an E3 last year). Sounds like they won't be having their own event during E3 either. They just had their Horizon State of Play last week and will have more State of Plays throughout the summer.

A legendary RPG name is on it's way back to Nintendo system. A franchise that has been gone for quite a while. After going dark eleven years ago, 2021 will bring a new Dusk (?!?) with Golden Sun for Switch

This is the only thing I want to hear

And Ace Attorney 7/new Mega Man game but they have no chance to appear in E3 first

Because theres some cost to get into E3 and presumably Sony wasnt seeing enough benefit to justify that compared to just doing their own thing.

E3 definitely doesn't make sense from a cost standpoint and industry insiders will generally tell you it's a massive pain in the ass. With how the news cycle works these days, it doesn't make any sense to spend all that time, effort and money to share the limelight when they could dominate the community's attention for a full day or longer with a single tweet.

There's been several accounts of the ESA being bad organisers and just generally greedy and poor at their jobs. I think all the companies would bail if something better came along. Heck, Nintendo could lift right out without much trouble, and MS doesn't even do their conferences at the official E3 show.

The only thing that would really concern me is that currently all eyes being on E3 means a ton of smaller games by indie teams get way more attention than they otherwise would, and I don't know how you'd make an equivalent for that without one centralised event.

Isn't the ESA just a representative of game publishers? Like, they aren't independent or anything.

I think E3 dominates the community a lot more than smaller presentations do.

I feel like at this point it's more a thing for tradition than an actual meaningful showcase. E3 is one of those things that's only relevant because it already has a name for itself.

I'll probably just look at a 2 minute recap of Nintendo's activities after the fact.

also since they're coming up soon here's some links for the indie live expo and guerilla collective

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-hKYrhMNl4 (indie live expo japanese ver)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MyBhM75fnQ (indie live expo "english" ver)
this is their 3rd expo, after one around e3 "period" last year and another in november. it's a non-e3 japanese event that features several hundred games over the span of 5 hours. yes, there's an english version. it's uh... it's generally a thing.

https://www.twitch.tv/guerrillacollective
apparently last year they did stuff for 3 actually consecutive days in place of e3

(and i'd also like to just give another shoutout to wholesome games. this is their second main showcase after one around late may last year, and their fourth overall counting two mini-showcases since then in august and december. they promote a lot of pretty good stuff. also pretend you didn't see me accidentally copy over the ign showcase's time for it before)
