the show is officially cancelled yes but whose fault is

The wave of withdrawal from publishers in recent days will have got the better of E3 2023, which is officially canceled. In a message posted on social networks, the organizers therefore confirm what many have feared for a few weeks, and the cancellation of the three manufacturers as well, the total disinterest of the industry for the one who was the high mass of video games for decades. It must be said that since COVID, the changes in the mode of communication on the part of video game players, they no longer need E3 to speak directly to players / consumers. This is not the first time that E3 has been threatened with disappearance since in 2007 and 2008, the show was relocated to hotels and hangars on the outskirts of Los Angeles to manage its first crisis. It must be said that the organizers have often been singled out for the costs of participation deemed excessive by market players, who no longer need an intermediary or physical presence to sell games by pallets.

2023 should however mark the great return of this legendary show which has made hundreds of thousands of players dream, ready to chain sleepless nights to follow the conferences of the three manufacturers Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo, without forgetting the covers on site of the different specialized media. This time therefore seems to be over, but other means of communication are obviously being put in place, such as Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest, who did not wait a minute before tweeting, recalling that his event will indeed take place on the 8 next June in Los Angeles, instead of E3. Many journalists did not hesitate to point the finger at him, telling him that he could have waited at least 24 hours before rejoicing in the corpse of E3. But as everyone knows, business is business and the event organized by Geoff Keighley won’t last forever either…
