The live component of E3 2021<\/strong> has been canceled according to documents released by Los Angeles Convention and Tourism Development Commission.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

A document published by the Board of Los Angeles Convention and Tourism Development Commission (spotted by Resetera user Rösti<\/a>) notes that E3 2021’s physical event has been canceled.<\/p>\n

The document notes that the convention commission is working with the ESA (the E3 organizer) to work out broadcast solutions for an online-only E3 later this year.<\/p>\n

\"E3<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, we heard that E3 2021 was planning to be a digital-only show<\/a>, though official comments from the ESA have yet to materialize.<\/p>\n

Apparently, we’re going to get three days’ worth of live-streamed coverage, remote demos, and more and it’ll all take place between June 15-17.<\/a><\/p>\n

Gaming’s Geoff Keighley will not return to be the face of the event’s livestreams and videos (online or in person), but the good news is Summer Game Fest<\/a> will return this year,<\/a> too.<\/p>\n

Other publishers, including Sony<\/a>, EA<\/a>, and Activision<\/a>, have been moving away from a singular centralized E3 event for a few years now.<\/p>\n

If you’re a fan of big, expensive in-person events, fret not: the Board of Los Angeles is working on obtaining a license for E3 shows in both 2022 and 2023. The ESA has said it would soon share full plans for E3 2021 soon.<\/p>\n
