And that's pretty much the death of E3 as we know it. Because all three of those companies were what's been holding that event up for years.

Who're they going to rely on? Bethesda? EA? lol

Is Bethesda even going to show up ? They are owned by Microsoft now.

Not sure if they could close the deal by June, but that would soon include Activision too.

That’s really lame, E3 was always such an event for me growing up I’d be so excited for the EGM and other game magazine coverage of E3; was so awsome. Later on my friend and I always get together and watch the show. Just sad to see it going out this way. But the industry changed a lot

At least in terms of trailers and stuff I think the Game Awards has replaced it.

E3 has been dead to me for years 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's been dead for pretty much everyone except E3 themselves at this point. It was pretty obvious after last year's cancelation that it was never going to come back.

Sony hasn't been at E3 in a few years. I'm surprised Nintendo and MS took this long to stop showing up also. You pay extra money and abide by the expo's timeline and rules, only for people to mercilessly bitch about your showcase year after year. Sony's State of Play pretty much makes sense because you can control the costs, release on your own time, and when people mercilessly bitch yet again about your showcase, at least you can go to sleep knowing this was on your terms and with money saved

Rest in peace, and thanks for all the memories.
