Summer Game Fest 2024: How to watch and every confirmed announcement
This story is part of our Summer Gaming Marathon series.
OTK Expo will show over 30 indie games on Tuesday as the June showcases kick off
Just to be different, Sony initiated the gaming showcase season in May with its State of Play stream, but the bulk of the shows are this week and next. First out of the gate is the OTK Games Expo on Tuesday, June 4.
Summer Game Fest ‘largely focused’ on announced games coming this year
The Summer Game Fest live showcase will be “largely focused” on previously announced games scheduled for release this year.
Summer Game Fest will focus on existing games, so don't hype yourself up for 'games that are years and years out,' says Geoff Keighley
In the wake of E3's demise, Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest has emerged as its self-appointed heir. SGF livestreams in years past have brought big reveals like 2021's Elden Ring gameplay, and we should expect more of that kind of thing this year, according to Keighley: That is, trailers and announcements related to games we already know about, rather than earth-shattering reveals of unannounced games. Keighley recently hopped onto a Twitch Q&A session for some «expectation setting» for this year's presentation. According to Keighley, while the 2-hour showcase will have plenty of trailers to show, it'll mostly consist of «existing games that have new updates for fans»—new content for released games, or trailers for games that have already been announced. «This is not a show that has a lot of like, 'coming in 2026' or '2027' or teasers for games that are years and years out,» Keighley said. We do already know some of what we'll see at SGF on Friday—I am, as always, looking forward to more Monster Hunter Wilds previews—and Keighley said that «there will be, definitely, new announcements,» even if they're not blockbuster reveals. Maybe if the stars align, we'll be lucky enough for a back-to-back Nic Cage appearance. Anything can happen if you dare to dream. Keighley was pretty candid in saying that if you're looking for the huge surprise announcements, you're more likely to find those at the other tentpole of the Keighleyverse: The Game Awards at the end of the year, when—unlike in the summer—the major publishers don't always have their own events for big reveals. As a result, Keighley said the Game Awards «has a lot of usually big surprises,» while SGF is «largely focused on announced stuff.» Luckily, if you're worried that you'll be left hungry for game previews, there are plenty of other showcases running throughout the week. Check out our SGF 2024 schedule for the full preview event lineup, including our own PC Gaming Show, airing at 1pm PDT on Sunday, June 9.

Summer Game Fest 2024 Will Be Quieter When it Comes to Shocking Announcements, Says Keighley
We've finally arrived at the Summer Game Fest 2024 week, and host Geoff Keighley has provided some advance info for fans in a Twitch Q&A. To begin with, Keighley tried to temper expectations, saying there won't be many shocking announcements this year:
Sorry Kingdom Hearts 4 hopefuls, Summer Game Fest's Geoff Keighley says don't expect another look at the long-awaited RPG sequel: "People are setting themselves up for failure"
It looks like Kingdom Hearts 4 will not make an appearance during this year's Summer Game Fest after all if host Geoff Keighley's latest remarks are anything to go by.
