Following the implosion of this year's E3 event Summer Game Fest has announced that it has united most of the gaming industry for its presentation. SGF is happening on June 8 and is a digital event featuring demos, announcements, and other gaming-related news from the industry. It began in 2020 as a new approach to other in-person trade show events such as E3 that have waned in recent years, especially following the lockdowns following the pandemic. While numerous publishers and console manufacturers have gone the route of doing their own individual streaming events SGF has still managed to rope in many for its own.

Although Nintendo is absent from the list both PlayStation and Xbox are present and then both Steam and Epic Games are listed as well. On the developer/publisher side of the fence, we see such big names as Activision, Bandai Namco, Capcom, Devolver, EA, Sega, Square Enix, Ubisoft, Warner Bros., Techland, and more. Konami is also notably absent but it is believed that is due to the company already being committed to its own event that is in the works. Although SGF is a digital event there will be a showing at the YouTube theater in Los Angeles which will be hosted by Geoff Keighley. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster.
