What to Expect at Summer Game Fest 2025
This year’s Summer Game Fest will have announcements from so many big game companies. We don’t know exactly which games will show up, but we can expect first looks for new games, new trailers for popular upcoming titles (Rockstar, we are looking at you), chats with developers, behind-the-scenes stuff, and more. The main event will last about two hours, giving plenty of time for big reveals. Last year, we saw trailers for games like Black Myth: Wukong and Metaphor: ReFantazio, so people are expecting a lot this time too.
New for 2025: The SGF Thought-Leader Event
The Thought-Leader Event is joining Summer Game Fest this year. It’s a meetup where top people from gaming, entertainment, and other industries will talk about:
- Problems the game industry is facing.
- Ways to grow and bring in new ideas.
- How games affect culture.
- What’s coming next in tech and trends.
The event is led by Christopher Dring and Geoff Keighley. It’s meant to give a better look at where the game world is heading and highlight how important games have become in entertainment. Following the main showcase, SGF Play Days will run from June 7th until June 9th in downtown Los Angeles.
This hands-on portion of the event gives media and content creators the chance to try the upcoming games firsthand, connect with developers, and even provide feedback on new titles. Isn’t that awesome? While Play Days is invitation-only for media and influencers, the coverage and previews that come out of this event will give everyone an early look at what’s coming in the world of gaming.
As we get closer to June 6, more info about the companies taking part and the games they might show will be shared. We will update you with more news because Summer Game Fest 2025 is definitely an event worth watching!
