Here's What We Know Won't Be at Summer Game Fest
The final countdown to a week of game announcements, trailers, updates, in-person activities in Los Angeles, and general shenanigans is upon us. One of the major lynchpins holding it all together is Summer Game Fest, a showcase put together by Geoff Keighley with the aim of uniting the game industry around a summertime shebang of video game news. But as he does every year before this and other hosted events like Gamescom Opening Night Live and The Game Awards, Keighley is trying to temper wild fan expectations by clarifying some of the things we absolutely will not see at Summer Game Fest on Friday.
In a live question and answer session hosted on Twitch over the weekend, Keighley answered some burning questions from fans about the upcoming showcase, including a long list not just of what we should expect to see on Friday, but also what we shouldn't.
As far as what will be there, Keighley confirmed we'll see plenty of updates to existing games, such as Palworld and Kingdom Come 2: Deliverance. We'll also see trailers for already-announced games, including Supermarket Simulator, Monster Hunter Wilds, Metaphor: Refantazio, Batman: Arkham VR, and Dragon Ball Sparking! ZERO. He also confirmed we'll be getting something from Blumhouse Games, and a new trailer for the Among Us animated series.
But in an interest of keeping surprises to himself, it's no surprise that the list of what won't be there is a bit longer:
Sorry, but anyone who was expecting another GTA trailer so soon after the last one needs to bring the expectations waaaaay down.
Keighley said that a lot of people have been asking him about this for some reason, but that those expecting such a thing are "setting themselves up for failure."
No new news on this, but Keighley says it won't be at SGF. Last we heard, it was delayed, and a collaboration with Deck Nine to work on a pre-production script for the game was cancelled. The game is still in production at Telltale, as of earlier this year.
