This year’s Summer Game Fest lineup includes over 30 developers and publishers, with the likes of PlayStation and Xbox confirmed to appear.
Summer Game Fest 2022 marks the Geoff Keighley-hosted event’s third year. After parting ways with E3 in early 2020, Keighley took his talents elsewhere and established a new type of gaming celebration for the summer months.
The event continues to grow, too. Last year’s showing especially moved the needle in terms of reach, evidenced by viewership stats that revealed the digital festival hit a peak of three-plus million concurrent viewers.
The host’s ability to secure heavy-hitters like the Elden Ring gameplay premiere no doubt amplified public interest. And with E3 2022 no longer in play, Summer Game Fest will once more sit at the center of attention in the coming days.
Summer Game Fest’s lineup revealed
Summer Game Fest 2022’s organizers revealed on June 1 the dozens of partners that will participate in this year’s festivities, first reported by GamesIndustry. More than 30 companies signed on to appear in some capacity, including PlayStation, Xbox, Netflix, Electronic Arts, and WB Games.
This announcement does not count as the full lineup of developers and publishers, either. In the days ahead, those behind Summer Game Fest plan to reveal even more participants.
