On June 7th we will have the opportunity to watch the Summer Game Fest Showcase, Geoff Keighely’s event. It will be the perfect space to see new games and familiar names in action, but exactly what can we expect from this show.
Keighely he certainly can’t tell us everything, but he gave an idea of how much he will and won’t be present during the show.
What will be shown at the Summer Game Fest Showcase
Let’s start with what will be present. The host says that we will be able to see games like Dragon Ball Sparking! ZERO, Metaphor: ReFantazio and Monster Hunter Wilds, which he is very excited about. He then explains that we will be able to admire a new trailer for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and also for Batman: Arkham VR.
In general, we can expect it to vary developers they will take the stage to talk about their games and there will also be some unexpected indie games. There will be space for both classic single-player games and live services. He also said that we will see games about zombies (this is a joke related to the 2022 presentation which had lots of games about zombies and space). We may also see an announcement for a game from Blumhouse Games, the gaming division of the company known for low-budget horror.
There will be a few new announcements, but they will mostly be updates from well-known names. We also shouldn’t fear that the presentation is full of announcements related to games for 2026/2027: they are mostly short-term products. There will also be space for a trailer for the Among Us animated series.
What won’t be at the Summer Game Fest Showcase
Talking about things instead”negative“, Keighley confirmed what certainly won’t be shown during the event. First of all, we shouldn’t expect something as incredible as a new trailer for GTA 6: lower your expectations. It also seems that there will not be a trailer for Silksong Hollow Knight, nor Kingdom Hearts 4, Wolf Among Us 2, Metal Gear Solid Delta, Beyond Good and Evil 2, Judas or Five Nights At Freddy’s.
Extending the discussion, he said that there won’t be a segment with the Muppets, no musical moment, no “one more announcement” as a final surprise and there won’t even be any giveaways. Finally, it seems that SEGA will have nothing to present and that Josef Fares, the creator of It Takes Two and A Way Out, will not be at the event: it must be said that this does not mean that he cannot present his new game, but we believe it is better not to have too much hope.
