E3 returns next year in person

The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) was one of the cornerstones of the video game industry. A week that every publisher, developer and fan remembers in their calendars because it was the place where we could have the biggest news, introductions and interviews of the year. E3 was almost one of the best times of the year for gamers.

However, now it's all a thing of the past. E3 once felt this way from the 1990s to the mid-2010s. Over the past decade, publishers have come to the conclusion that they can better manage their news release cycle and distribute the news in different ways throughout the year. The growing popularity of fully digital events has made major publishers more determined to make that decision. This, along with the big mistakes made by the ESA (E3 organization) in holding E3 in previous years, has all led to a gradual decline in E3. It made matters worse for E3, preventing the event from being held in person at the Los Angeles Convention Center for the past three years. ESA held E3 last year, but digitally, but this year, when the situation was even better than last year, the corona situation, they did not hold E3 at all.

However, now that the virus epidemic is declining, face-to-face events like E3 are starting again, and despite E3 now competitors like" Game Summer Festival " (Summer Game Fest) is on its side, the organizers of this event have decided that now is the time to announce that they are trying to bring everything back to the way it was in 2023.

Stan Pierre-Lewis "We look forward to returning in 2023 with a digital, face-to-face event," the ESA CEO told the Washington Post. While we love digital events and know that access to them is great for people around the world, we also know that there is a great desire for people to connect and see each other in person at events. "Things that make games great speak for themselves." Kelly is also scheduled to come next year with the in-person digital event "Summer Game Celebration", E3 will be a very difficult task and needs surprises so that they can regain the importance they had in the past.
