Here’s our ongoing recap of E3 2021, which breaks down the biggest news and trends of the expo.
The biggest gaming event of the year is in full swing. E3 is back after taking 2020 off due to the COVID-10 pandemic. This year, it’s an all-digital event featuring several of gaming’s biggest publishers. Things are much more confusing this time around, though. Events like Summer Game Fest have splintered the gaming landscape, turning the entire month of June into a vague, mega expo. In fact, some of the biggest announcements of the month came before the event even started. EA chose to reveal Battlefield 2042 on its own time, while Summer Game Fest snagged the coveted Elden Ring trailer reveal. Still, there’s plenty of news left in the tank for E3 proper. Here’s our recap of the event, which we will update every day with new information. Let’s get something out of the way up front: the E3 app is functionally useless. As part of the reimagined expo, the ESA created an E3 web portal where users can browse digital booths.
