Publishers going rogue fighting for our attention, stores leaking top secret games and all our hopes and dreams condensed in a very, very intense week. E3 is back after its 2020 absence, and this time it will share the spotlights with Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest!
This OT will be used to discuss strictly events from third-party companies. The Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase will get its own dedicated OT where we will be able to doompost at will (please don’t).
Studios Showcases:

To be honest I had completely forgotten about Nintendo.
Xbox + Bethesda will definitely get its own OT, but I don’t know about Nintendo. What do you guys think? A dedicated thread or is this one good enough for them?
EA being so far off is strange, indeed. If one can dream, I’m hoping for a Battlefield reveal during Xbox’s showcase with a Game Pass announcement, and a full gameplay reveal during EA’s event.
My personal opinion is that Nintendo definitely deserves their own thread, particularly in a year where they are releasing new hardware, nonetheless! But others may disagree
I think they will have their usual Nintendo Treehouse thing. E3 also considered them a “major sponsor” alongside Xbox, but as far as I know nothing official has been announced yet, I think?
Will be watching Summer Game Fest, Koch Media Primetime Gaming Stream, Ubisoft Forward and the PC Gaming Show which seems to be combined with Games Radar Future Games Show.
I just need a Square Enix, Capcom and THQ Nordic shows, I’ll be set. lol.
My biggest hope for this entire summer’s worth of shows, outside of anything Xbox related, is that BioWare resurface & show us something, anything for Dragon Age: Tevinter
