Geoff Keighley – owner and founder of Summer Game Fest – has preemptively settled expectations for the live show in terms of big AAA reveals.
In a personal Q&A livestream, Keighley states that it has been a quieter year for the industry, and that the show would focus on games that have already been announced rather than those set for a release date in 2025 and beyond. As such, he warned those watching not to expect a “one more thing” reveal – typically a mic-drop trailer left for the end of the Summer Game Fest showcase to end the event with a bang.
The Summer Game Fest live show is set to take place later this week on June 7. Starting at 2PM ET / 5PM PT from the YouTube live theatre, Keighley stated it would run for around two hours in total, and would still be packed full of trailers and other surprises. If you’re a fan of keeping up with the latest in the video game industry, it’s still worth a watch even if bombshell reveals aren’t to be expected.
